    Ok, so I thought I was content with a set of TRD off-roads I picked up. Then I came across a deal I couldn’t refuse.

    Now I’m torn, and need some help from the peanut gallery. Which should I run? The truck will be staying relatively stock appearance wise.

    If your not going to mod I like the bbs TRD Pro on a 275/65/18. If you are going to lift more than a level kit I’d resell them and make some money.

    I know. That’s why it says 18 on the tire size.

    Long term I’m leaning toward Nothing more than a basic level front with bags in the rear for towing.

    No need for a 2nd set, but the off-roads would be perfect for that winter set if I had the need.

    I’ll try to get these on tonight, and get a better side by side comparison. I’m starting to think maybe it’s the all black I’m not 100% intro. I do think they look better in person than in pictures though.

    I’ll eventually go 275/70-18 for tires, but probably not taller or wider for MPG and towing reasons

    The pro bbs wheels are really nice wheels, major upgrade over the old pro version, which were just black trd offroad wheels. Definitely stick with those BBS

    Aftermarket. Unless you want to deal with spacers neither come in a good offset

    I do understand that concern, but it is irrelevant for folks like me that intend to stay stock width and only grow them tires by an inch in height. If I was going to do anything major, I definitely agree with aftermarket.

    I'd be interested in the black and silver trd off-road wheels if you decide to part ways with them. I've got a set 20" BBS wheels and wanting to go to 18's.

    I’ve have to say that the BBS wheels that come on the Pro are definitely the nicest stock wheels I’ve ever owned, and normally I swap wheels out with aftermarket ones.
    Mine are staying on for good.

    Imo, 18” rims look too small on our trucks. I almost bought a set of bbs pros earlier in the summer, but luckily it fell through. I’ll stick with the 20” TSS wheels I bought from another member on here for now. :thumbsup:

    Do the trd off rd the bbs blacks out the truck too much.

    This was actually my primary concern, I almost wish they had some silver or were bronze like the land cruiser heritage edition. I think how it sits with some chrome accents on my truck it looks good, but wouldn’t color match or black anything else.
