Online source for Black TRD wheels? Or, any for sale?

leobug · 01-06-2009, 07:15 AM

I ordered the silver alloy 16" TRD wheels online. They will be shipping tomorrow. I realize now that I want to "follow the leader" and get the black wheels. I can cancel the order today for the silvers if I can find some black ones somewhere else.

Anyone know of an online retailer selling the black TRD wheels for a reasonable price? Or, is anyone selling theirs?

Thanks!

Look in the vendor section for Sparks Toyota and give them a call.

Sparks wouldn't sell them to me.

I did find a dealer who would. I'll let you know who once I get them. Should be after next week.

Oh sorry. I remembered seeing a thread in their section that they had them but now I see they require proof of damage. That kinda sucks. I thought I also read at point that Toyota was selling them regardless.

At least you got some. Be careful what you clean them with. Try to use a mild cleaner and water. They look great though.

Oh, really? Are they not very durable? Eek.

Harsher cleaners seem to leave a residue on the finish that can be hard to remove. I used to use a very weak mix of Simple Green. They are a pain to clean, but it isnt that bad.

You got me worried now! Are they like real chalky and matte? No coating?
