Upgraded to Platinum Status... kinda...

Well guys, its been a while since I visited, but I thought I would post and show you guys how the Platinum 20's look with 35x12.50x20 Toyo MTs on an 04-08.
Let me know what ya think, i wasn't really looking for an all-chrome wheel but I couldn't beat the price.

Looks awesome. I think the Platinum wheels are some of the best looking OEM wheels out there.

You might just be on to something there!!
I hadn't even thought of going that route... I'll definitely be talking to a local tint/decal shop this week to get some pricing on that.

I'd do that... and make the bumpers and the rockers black... I think that would look good and make the wheels "pop"

It would match the look you have on your mirrors - bottom black, top red...
