I'm more of a 20" wheel lover as I am not an off-roader, however, I really like the 18's style. I may pick up a set as well to have if I have a need for a luggier (sp?) tire.

I have a black LC - Premium, kinda want to buy those bronze 'TOYOTA' center-caps and powder coat my stock 18" rims to match

Has anyone done this? Would love to see pics if so -

I used to live in Nob Hill, then Mission Bay before moving down to Socal last year. Do you garage your LC in SF?

Nice! No I wish… just street parking unfortunately.

Here’s what they look like if anyone is interested. I like the copper with black LC. Getting black lugs on this week and then I think they’ll look really good. Might pick up the copper trim pieces for the interior at some point too: gear shifter surround and steering wheel.

How'd you get these to fit over the front hub dust cover? I seem to be the only one dense enough to encounter a problem installing PT998-35221-3S. They seem to be contacting the hub dust cover before they pop into place. Are you running a spacer or is everything stock on your set up?

Front hubs - where the dust cover is blocking it from snapping in.

Rear axle below.
They're plug in play on the rear axle where there's no dust cover in the way.

Threw the heritage bronze ones on mine yesterday, looks very good. Wish they were metal or more substantial (which would obviously make them more expensive), but they look great. The 20" wheels seem to mark up easy with my plastic trim tool (which wasn't initially working) so I used a flathead wrapped in tape to pry, then pop with the trim tool.

Update - figured it out. The dust cover on the front hubs can be tapped in. The dust caps had a different depth from the center cap seat on driver vs passenger. So I used a dead blow hammer to tap in the dust cover about 3/16" to get it seated.
