Toyo Trail RT 255/80R17E with painted Black Diamond Steel Take-offs.

[Hey Buddy]

I love my base model steel silver rims, but I was also really loving the 255/85R16 tall & skinny look.
What I found was a severe lack of available AT/non-MT options in a 255/85R16.
So, I bought a set of (5) Black Diamond steel factory rims ($491 with shipping included), had them painted silver ($400) & mounted 255/80R17E Toyo Trail RT tires on them. The rims came out a little more shiny than I would have liked, but hey, worse case scenario....re-paint them myself or just continue to let them get dirty. The Toyo Trail RT tires drive great! They feel lighter & are less squishy-feeling than the BFG K02s I was running. Any-who, this place is just a really bad influence for getting ideas to do stuff to my Bronco & I love it!!

I was wondering when someone might do this. Looks great with carbonized gray. This is the way!!

That does look pretty good! Proper old school…

I like the shiny-er silver wheels. I say leave them alone.

I agree, they are growing on me for sure! They look more 'steel' than silver.

Nice work! I like it. Looks great.

I’ve been trying to figure out what color outside of black would look nice for the steelies on Iconic Silver and I’m pretty stumped.

Good tires. I installed 315-70-17 on method 703s. Not a rock slinger like the the KO2s

I'd like to see a before photo.

Iconic Silver looks great with the black steelies, though!

I'd like to see a before photo.

I painted the rims before I got the tires mounted, so only before shot is with my base steelies.

FANTASTIC LOOK.
did you consider the
Falken Wildpeak M/T

your photos show 255/80 R17 - on the tire itself
not : 255/85 R16
