    I know the black wheel fad has been around awhile, and they look great on a lot of vehicles, but it’s far from unique now that everyone’s doing it!! So let’s see some pictures of some future fad starters!!

    Yeah, it’s a fad that I just had to join in. The TSS trim with the black wheels might even be the reason I bought a Tundra.

    Everything we are doing to our trucks currently is a fad or personal preference. Both of which can change at anytime. This is why you are never truly done modding!

    Is 100+ years really a fad?54A2A257-2ACD-4D67-82B8-FFFC7E2F668A.jpg

    That being said, I’ve been very impressed with what has been done with hydro dipping.

    Also...I have gray wheels on my Jeep Wrangler, but the Tundra came with black wheels from the dealer and I saw no reason to change them.

    You might see a lot of modded trucks on here with black wheels but out in the real world 95% of all vehicles have silver, grey, or chrome wheels. Just sit on the sidewalk and watch cars drive by and count them.

    I'd be open to different colors, but what else would look good on a Desert Sand?

    Could be a fad, but I am still loving it. I also love wheels that are different colors, I don't discriminate.

    If I was to rob a bank; I’d get a black pickup with big tires and black rims, grow a beard and get some fake tattoos, never get caught!!

    Edit: I forgot ; I’d also wear the skinny pants that look like long underwear without the dick holes in them!

    Natural Aluminum looks good, but white might be just right.
