    Hi all,
    Just a long shot here but does anybody in or near So Cal 951 have a spare set of wheels that would fit my '18 that I can borrow for just 2 or 3 days? I'm wanting to powder coat my OEM wheels but don't want to leave my truck at the shop for the day or two. I'd rather drop JUST my wheels off for powder coat. Truck will be garaged the entire time. Even if it's the cheapest spare wheel set.

    Oops, I should probably add that my OEM wheel/tire is 20". I'd need your wheels to fit my tires

    If you are going to garage the truck anyway just put it on jack stands for a few days while the wheels are powder coated.

    Good idea but right now my Tundras the only means of transport I have since my Taco is down for maintenance.

    I ended up finding a set of 18" OEM wheels with tires for close to nothing this past weekend on Craigslist. I have a buddy that works at a tire shop that can dismount and remount my wheels so I'll be able to drop my wheels off myself and be able to get to and from home during the power coat. :thumbsup:

    Plus now I'll have a 2nd set of wheels I can also powder coat if I want to swap out to later on down the road.

    Glad you got it sorted! Be careful. You just might fall in love with the extra sidewall you get with an 18" wheel instead of a 20. Makes for a more comfy ride.

    I'd like to be able to run the 18's right now but just can't put that much money down right now for new tires just yet. Once I wear these tires out I'll get some better tires n run the 18's than.
