    Few questions:

    1) Has anyone ever heard that it is hard to balance Toyota wheels? Several tire shops have said this to me now. Weird.

    2) The 18" wheels are just not working for tire load ratings. I would like to get out of LR E tires. A LR C or D in a LT tire would be great. Been looking at dropping down to a 17" wheel, not sure about a 20" for towing. A few shops say with as little tire that is used, the ride will suffer when loaded.

    3) I really like the Texas Edition wheels. I remember someone telling me there is an aftermarket replica, but for the life of me I can't find out who makes them. Need to go aftermarket to go a little less on backspacing.

    Thanks for the input on this topic.
