    Hello All,
    First-time poster. I am a new Tundra owner, I have a Supersonic Red 2022 Limited model. The only thing I have done to it is a complete de-chrome of everything except the window trim. My question is, I am torn between 18" bronze or black wheels and what tires and size to get. Please feel free to comment, I am not easily offended (unlike my 26-year-old daughter) I am open to any and all opinions.
    Thank you for your help

    Welcome from LA (Lower Alabama)! I second the vote for black on your truck.

    I will disagree on the black, way overdone. Most of the black wheels are matte finish, which is also harder to clean and keep looking good. Need be take care with cleaning and products used, matte black wheels can get white spots and etching from contaminants. Most of the trucks I see locally with black wheels (and they are everywhere) always look like crap. I guess people dont think their wheels and tires need to be cleaned/washed if they are black.

    So my vote is anything other than black...so bronze.

    Thank you for the help, still torn on the black or bronze. Any suggestions for an AT tire that is quiet on the highway, and what size? Want a little poke.
