    I know they are not "Rock Star" flashy.....




    ...but the steel Pro Comp Street Locks I run on 35's have impressed me.


    They have stood up to all kinds of abuse

    And the price is right

    $200 to debadge the Rockstars?! Screw that. Amazing though, start a cottage industry selling blanks to replace cheesy branding.

    The Pro Comps Jo just posted are looking good.

    The stock 18's are actually 7 inches wide. Really skinny for a 12.5, it was hard work getting them on there and getting the beads set.

    Plus they have a different offset than the 15X8's that we have our MT/R's on. The MT/Rs stick out a little bit, maybe half an inch past the fenders on my rig. These sit pretty much flush with the fenders. I don't know what kind of clearance you have inboard with your new SAS up front.

    I also really like those FUEL wheels you posted. One of my favorite wheels is actually the wheels that come on the Toyota Rock Warrior package tundras. They are 17X8.5, +38 offset.

    I like the look of procomp steelies (and they're cheap) but they don't make em in anything larger than 16".

    Eric, I figured the stockers were a bit to slim for the 13.50 width tires I have in mind and the positive offset could be an issue with the new front end.

    The Tundra rock warrior wheels are slick. I had a Tundra and wanted those pretty bad at the time. It's unfortunate they sell high and are 5 lug.

    Billy, I'll save the t-case for next year's project.

    I personally would go with the Fuel Anza 18x9 +20mm out of those choices. You could always just plasti-dip them black if they ever got too dinged up.

    I was looking at these the other day....

    I like it

    I feel like that bumper would either look amazing or awful on the VX. No middle ground on that one.

    I still haven't made up my mind on these rims, definitely between the first two. I'm planning to buy next month, so I need to decide soon.

    I'll keep you updated.

    Better make it sooner than later as you are about to be severely limited in the disposable income category.

    No stars! haha
    Definitely the Fuel Anza, 18x9. Your current rims are old school. I like them but IMO, with your mods and your VX's paint scheme, the Anza's will look really sharp with your VX and bring the whole look up to date, so to speak.
