    I just ordered the black rhino, alpha wheels for my magnetic gray 4runner! I am getting the matte black/gunmetal gray (all matte) I know they just started making these in a 6 bolt to fit the 4runner so it was hard to find any videos or pictures on line to show me an accurate example of what it will look like on my 4runner.
    Has anyone out there purchased these for a gray 4Runner!? Any pictures? Any advice on how well it will match my truck? I will be replacing my stock trd wheels IMG_8097.jpg IMG_8078.png

    Welcome.

    The two tone wheel will make the wheel look smaller than it is.

    Ok, I suppose I’m not totally opposed to that. Is that a bad thing? Or will it look ok still?

    My senior brain says, "Wow, how painful will it be to clean these?" The standard TRDOR wheels are SO easy to clean. These do look nice, though.

    My OCD personality thought the same. That’s a lot of nooks and crannies to clean. But they look nice.

    I always recommend when buying new wheels, look at the weight of the wheels. Anything over 30lbs is a downgrade.

    Backspacing is also important. 4.5" is pretty much standard on 4runners. When your backspacing is less then that you may run into rubbing issues.

    As far as looks, I think they'll look great. I'm with the other guys who mentioned how tedious they will be to clean. JMO for what it's worth. Be sure to post up pics once you get them mounted.
