These definitely turned my head - saw this beauty in my neighborhood today and told the owner I wanted to post a picture of it online here, and he noted the site name so maybe he will end up being a new member soon!
Here is a sneak preview of his truck - these tires are crazy thin!

I couldnt even read the sidewall markings in the 15 seconds I tried, but wow this is the thinnest tire and biggest wheel I have ever seen..... He said they are 28", and I saw the DUB logo on the center caps - that's all I know. Enjoy!

I bet it rides hard with those really low pro tires. Looks like he put those on a work truck by the black bumpers and grille.

Hey dont knock the grade tundra. I ended up with a grade and modded it what I want and spent well less than the extra $10k they wanted for a limited at the time. At the time they were giving Tundras away got my grade for $22k and the limited were around $32k. I think the work truck is a lesser model than the grade anyways.

Low pros may be great for truck shows standing still, but not for everyday driving. That is just a waste of money to me, the wheels are nice IMO. Other than that, the whole truck just looks ugly.:badidea:

Well, I will kind of go against the flow here and say, if he lowered it (not slammed it), debadged, painted the bumpers, and did a little "work" here and there, it'd look more with the style.

Not my cup of tea, obviously, but with some work, it can be alright.

Well I can't say its a waste of money cuz lord knows I've spent a lot of money on my cars over the years and a lot of people said that was a waste. If he or she is happy with it I guess that's all that matters.

I guess people can spend their money on whatever they want but I think it looks terrible. What do you pay for a set of 28" wheels and tires? Has to be many thousand dollars, I could have thought of a lot of things better to do with that kind of money!!!

For me the whole thing just looks awful, the low pros leave so much empty room underneath. Its just not a great look. As stated before "to each his own", but damn to me this is WAY off base.

those rims/tires cost more than the truck itself.

not my cup of tea either but I wonder what it would be like on long highway drives? would it handle and corner much like a car?
