I was able to pick up these wheels from a friend who rolled his Taco. His Taco was totaled. I've been searching for a center cap, since the original ones are lost somewhere in the desert where the truck went over.

I was thinking of just painting the hubs black but was hoping someone knows where I might pu something the maybe flat (low profile). Not looking for some huge chrome dixie cup to hang off the wheel.

Yea, that's what I was thinking. Did you have any problems with the paint sticking to the rusted area?

I did the same thing to my stock stealies! Just rough it up with w/ a wire brush or if you want you can wet/dry sand it. Once done use a no lint cloth to take off all the fine dust and then spray w/ high temp. flat black paint (or color of your choosing).

Wheelers has hub caps that I have on my rims. Make sure they will fit you're setup though. http://www.wheelersoffroad.com/tacomablackalloys.htm
They are near the bottom of the page. They look plastic in the picture, but the ones I have are metal.

No problems so far, i tried to get as much rust off as possible with a wire brush attached to a drill and sand paper. I also primed it before paint.

Going to just paint them.

Hey Rhino, appreciate the link. I just wish the caps were a lower profile, maybe 1/2" tall. If I had a local machine shop connection I'd ask them to make some, but haven't been able to find a reasonable shop yet.

Thanks for the info guys, gotta go pu some paint.
