    Finally have pictures of the rims and front skid

    Here are the 2010 Toyota FJ cruiser Trail Teams rims powder coated to match!!! They fit perfectly, just needed a little trim job. Sorry that the truck is so dirty.

    Nice...

    Never seen anyone do white coat on the rims, but it works very, very well.

    I find Ironman white too generic but the rims and the plate make it pop.

    I would turn the t-bars a couple rotations before trimming anything. Looks like it's just a bit low in front.

    Lookin' good Brandon! Very cool with the rims. Are the front turn signal lens from Klearz? Can't recall seeing anybody get them in the smoke/tinted before.

    These wheels are great. I think the color keyed beadlock would only work in one of the lighter colors, as one of the darker (Foxfire or Ebony), it would just blend into the darkness of the cladding/tires. Good find on the rims. Did you buy from dealer using a BIN of a LC you have? These are the TRDs only for sale to FJ owners?

    I had a 2010 trails team fj that I got rid of before the VX, so I kept the rims off the fj Just in case you don't know I have the complete grey and black interior swapped into the iron man. So the theme really works well in my opinion.

    Nice job on keeping with a theme, so many times taste and money don't go well together.

    I don't know about the blending-in thing Bren, my plate really stands out, especially in direct sunlight.



    I've thought about changing the Borbet emblem on my rims from black background / white letters to Foxfire background / white letters, but there's a clear plastic or clearcoat covering over them. I have a few extra covers, maybe I'll have my wheel doctor guy try it out.
