    I prefer the old one.

    Agreed. It looks like they just pushed in the middle, and added some features around the edge.

    It's hard to say without seeing it on a vehicle. I think it might look good.

    I just wish they made a 17" version of their TRD faux beadlock wheel.

    Appearance is pretty subjective. Once they've been around awhile, I guarantee there will be owners wanting to swap SR5 wheels for the TRD, as they do now.

    They both appear they would be a PITA to clean.

    I have to agree. The old ones look better. The new ones remind me of the TRD PRO wheel on the Tacoma.

    I agree. I like the previous model better. But if I bought a 2021 with the new style wheels, I’d still be ok with them.

    Didn't realize they were still selling them! That's awesome! Maybe they'll have gray again one day.
