I reserved a 2026 TRD OR and upgraded the wheels to TRD wheels, but why is it 18 inches now? My 2020 TRD OR has 17 inch wheels and from memory, 17-inch wheel is better than 18-inch because 17 has more options. Is that correct?

Why is the new TRD wheel 18 inches?

We don’t know. It’s what Toyota did. Not a huge deal. Contact where you’re ordering them from and maybe they can be of help.

I'm surprised they gave you the option to upgrade. As I understood it, at least in my area, what the dealer gets, they get; there was no option to change anything. Unless maybe the dealer ordered them separately and is charging you for that as a dealer option.

I’m trading my Taco for a 4Runner when/if it arrives and I’m putting my 17” Taco wheels on the 4Runner and they can keep the 18” to put on the Taco.

Buying 17” TRD Pro used wheels on Market this week. Will use the OR in the winter and the Pro in the summer.

If you build one on the Toyota website, the wheels are available as a dealer instal upgrade.

I managed to get to know a guy by accident who is the one ordering or controlling their inventory. He can change stuff while the vehicle is enroute to the port. I don't deal with the outside guys at the dealership, they are a waste of time, and I know they also have to work, but most of the time when you ask them something, it's either they are not sure, they don't know, or they don't give a F. So I go directly to the internet sales guy via email. I don't even go to the dealership. I only went there last weekend to show him my Tacoma that I'm trading in.
