Hello fellow Tacoma enthusiasts. I am creating personal works of art for people and wanted to offer them here. I am creating one of a kind, custom made, Hotwheel Tacomas as replicas to yours, or, of one you may just want to build. I have an etsy page at JRLCustomz.etsy.com where you can purchase them. (Tyler, I hope its ok to post that external link here?)

Also doing non Tacoma customs so let me know what you need

Interesting that raised white letters are provided on the tires. My Magnet Grey Taco with black rims is starting to look a little too monochrome to me, but I don't see anything white white letters anymore. I guess it is no longer in fashion?
 
I know. These wheels are aftermarket ones I get and swap out. I think they are fun on the models but also have black wall. The BFG white letters look nice 😊 n real trucks. There’s a local guy with those. Nice throwback

I did a dark bronze wheel on mine to add some contrast. Works well. Everything else is Magnet grey and black so I get it
 
I do. I order most items on eBay…so many cool accessories on there. I just got a printer but need to learn how to use it now 🤔

Let me know if you ever need some help.
Also remember PLA can warp from heat/UV, just use PETG. That's what I would do. If you find the files, it's easy to resize them to what you need.
Thingiverse, cults, printables, yeggi, stlfinder are the main ones I use.
When searching, sometimes you might have to change the wording of what you're looking for around. Different order and try substituting them. Example: Adapter, holder, clamp, housing...

Also, I'm gonna assume you're gonna use Cura. Once you select the printer. Copy these settings over.

Makes a huge difference.

I like the bronze against the gray, but new rims are well above my toy budget. When I need tires I will revisit the white letters, but it will probably limit tire choice
