Input on which bronze wheels to buy (1 Viewer)

[doctacarta]

I have a stock 2013 LC 200. I really like the heritage wheels but don't like the $500+ per wheel price! Ha.

I've done some searching and I do like this wheel: 2016 LX570 Air Down Gear Up build - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/2016-lx570-air-down-gear-up-build.1263324/page-2 but I have a pet peeve where I'd like to see TRD or Toyota in the center hub cap of each wheel.

Any ideas? The TRD wheels that I've come across are in 17inch and I'd like a turnkey fit in an 18inch.


Thanks!!

If you want Toyota or trd center caps you’ll likely need to buy tundra take offs. There’s a bunch of different styles and they’re generally not very expensive on the used market.

What do you mean by “take off”? Could you provide a link or a photo as an example?

Thanks

Stock wheels that someone took off their tundra to replace with an aftermarket one

Get your current wheels powder coated

Why would you want “TRD” on wheels if your rig wasn’t made by the racing division?

Seems like putting a Ford decal or the Mercedes Cross-hairs on our land cruisers.

It seems more like putting AMG badging on a non-AMG Mercedes.

Just FYI, those ICONs that you referenced are not available in 18s. Im also looking at some bronze 18s, but don't like the heritage wheels.

I thought an LC would have a sea of wheel options, but apparently it might come down to getting a custom set made similar to Supras.

17” 5x150 wheels are just as turn key as any 18” 5x150 wheel, unless it happened to be specifically made for a 100 series. Anything that fits a Tundra/sequoia will fit a 200 (with stock brakes anyways). I should add, if you are going aftermarket, there are some wheels with wildly low offsets, I personally would avoid those, as that would be less “turnkey”. I wouldn’t go any lower than +25 (that’s what the Vectors are) but some have gone further..

Love my Icon rebounds (18x9 +25), the bronze it subtle and no spacers needed to sit flush. Pre lift and post lift pics

So I am looking to buy something like this: Genuine Toyota 17" Bronze TRD PRO Wheel Set w/ Black Lug Nuts Set PTR2035110F5-PT0766020002-X4 | Elmhurst Toyota Parts - https://parts.elmhursttoyota.com/p-genuine-toyota-17-bronze-trd-pro-wheel-set-w-black-lug-nuts-set-ptr2035110f5pt0766020002x4

Then need to decide what size 17inch tire I can put on a stock LC200 without rubbing. I'd like to try to put on a 33 or 34inch tire. I think down the road I'll do the popular 2.5inch old man emu lift.


Thanks

That's a six lug wheel for a Tacoma/4Runner....won't get you very far on a 200 series. There is a 17" TRD wheel that is now out of production for the Tundra/200 (Searching for Rock Warrior Wheels will find it pretty quick). It's not bronze though and only available used at this point.

I have seen them painted bronze before:

LT285/70R17 (about a 33") was an OEM upgrade option for the 2013 LC with the above wheel (offet = +50mm). So that definitely works. i think once you go to the LT285/75R17, you have to start worrying about KDSS interference.

These aren't any cheaper, but if i was looking for a new bronze wheel for a 200, this is what i would go with. (Or the Vector 5s you already linked to in your original post)

I am really digging these: Vector 5 / Matte Bronze - Icon Alloys - Icon Vehicle Dynamics - https://www.iconvehicledynamics.com/wheel/13563/icon-alloys-vector-5/2617855557BR/?finishID=36 Looks like they come in a 25mm offset as well.
