    I was looking at the brochure and the center caps for nightshade option is black with a silver toyota emblem.
    The other non TRD seem to be the same with silver outer edge instead of black.
    Did my vehicle get the wrong caps?
    What does yours have?

    Pics of yours? Your profile shows a 2008 something. Nightshade wasn't offered then, so not sure what were talking about.

    Thanks Chuck. I have the same model as you as well as the 08.
    The factory brochure is different.
    Why we are getting non nightshade center caps is odd

    I got rid of mine by changing to TRD Pro wheels. I like the 18” better anyway…

    Toyota, or somebody, needs to make the center caps match the paint. I want these in solar octane!

    Derailing my own thread, Chuck how do you like the Falkens? I have K02's on my 08 and the slide in wet traffic circles which we have a lot of so I was thinking 3w's

    These are the stock tires that come on the TRD Pro (I got the TRD Pro wheels and tires as a package "take off" set with 12 miles on them). I usually don't use AT tires, since 95% of my driving is on highway or local roads, but since they came with the wheels, I decided to try them for a while. They are a little bit noisy for my taste, but are about the same noise as my son's K02s and I am getting used to the hum. These are the SL rated tire at 38.26lbs vs the E rated LT tire at 65lbs according to Discount Tire. I've driven them for 900 miles so far on mostly dry pavement, but also some Texas heavy rain and I am pleased with the performance. Nothing off road yet. Overall handling and stopping is better than the stock Yokohama Geolandar X-CV tires that came on my Limited. They fill the wheel well nicely with minimum poke, so they look aggressive enough for me, but not huge and no rub - I do not have it lifted at all.
