um.... yeah . the wheels are nice, but not on a truck. trucks should be lifted with big knobby off road tires and small wheels; i dont care what the current trend is! be different, put some 17's on there with some 33" tall off road tires.

You are asking so I am telling you what I think.

For some reason they are not attractive to me. AND, if I am going to spend good money on new wheels and tires, I would have picked another style. I have had very low profile tires on a vehicle before and they greatly hurt the ride.

Yep, I must be OLD!

I think the LX would look best with the Tundra's 5 spoke 20s. I think you need a big thick spoke to go on something as big as the LX.

19psi, I'd like to see an LX as you described.

ggebhardt & pemarsh, I would have picked another style as well. I wonder how the LX rides on low profile tires with the dampening set to soft?

MP, funny you should say that. I photoshopped my Tundra wheels on my LX. I'll post pics on Monday. The pics are on my work computer.

These pics are not of my LX. I was browsing the net and came across the pics on forgiato.com.

The newest item I have for the LX is the all weather mat for the cargo area. If you don't have it yet, I'd suggest it. I wish it would cover the entire cargo area and the area where third row passenger's feet meet the carpet. Oh well.

WARNING! For those that can't stand the current trend of big wheels on "trucks" turn away NOW! Another photochop.
