The Honest Take

KNOWN FOR:

The reborn off-road icon. Removable doors and roof, 7-speed manual option, real off-road capability. Built to compete with the Wrangler.

Strengths

  • Removable doors/roof - true Wrangler competitor
  • Sasquatch package brings factory 35s and beadlock-capable wheels
  • 6x139.7 = cross-compatible with Tacoma/4Runner/Ranger
  • Multiple powertrain options (2.3L, 2.7L)
  • Genuine off-road capability

Watch Out For

  • Roof issues on early production (water leaks)
  • 7-speed manual gear sound complaints
  • Hardtop quality control issues
  • Wait list for popular trims
  • Limited bed capacity (it's an SUV)

Build Categories

Pick the direction you want to take this truck. Each section has wheel styles, colors, and specs that work for that build.

Daily+

Better than stock, daily-able, OEM+ aesthetic

For owners who want their truck to look noticeably upgraded without sacrificing ride quality, gas mileage, or daily usability. Stock-height suspension with cleaner aftermarket wheels and slightly more aggressive tires. The most common build in Texas because most owners drive their truck every day.

  • Wheel sizing: 18-20" diameter, +18 to +44 offset
  • Tire pairing: 33" effective (e.g. 285/65R18 or 285/55R20)
  • Suspension: Stock height OR mild leveling spacer

Wheel styles that work

Clean 5 to 7-spoke designs that mimic OEM aesthetic but with sharper edges and modern finishes. Avoid super-aggressive concave or beadlock-style wheels - they look out of place on a stock-height truck.

Color recommendations by truck color

  • Black truck: Bronze, machined, black, or red accent wheels
  • White truck: Anything works - gloss black, gunmetal, bronze, machined, chrome
  • Red truck: Black, grey, or machined finishes
  • Grey or Silver truck: Anything - most flexible truck color for wheel pairing
  • Blue truck: Machined, black, or grey - neutral wheels let the blue stand out

Lifted

Off-road presence, daily-able, no beadlocks

The most common "built" truck you see at Texas truck meets. 2" to 6" of lift with bigger wheels and tires. Looks aggressive, handles light off-road, still works as a daily driver. This is the build that started Texas truck culture.

  • Wheel sizing: 20x10 or 20x12, -12 to -25 offset
  • Tire pairing: 33x12.50 or 35x12.50 A/T or M/T
  • Suspension: Leveling kit (basic) or 4-6" lift kit (serious presence)

Wheel styles that work

Aggressive concave or mesh designs that fill the larger wheel wells visually. Stay away from skinny spoke designs - they look weak on a lifted truck.

Color recommendations by truck color

  • Black truck: Bronze, machined, black, or red accent wheels
  • White truck: Anything works - gloss black, gunmetal, bronze, machined, chrome
  • Red truck: Black, grey, or machined finishes
  • Grey or Silver truck: Anything - most flexible truck color for wheel pairing
  • Blue truck: Machined, black, or grey - neutral wheels let the blue stand out

Off-Road Performance

Beadlock-ready, smaller diameter, serious capability

The build for guys who actually take their truck off-pavement. Smaller diameter wheels (17"-18"), 8.5"-9" wide, conservative offsets, beadlock or beadlock-style wheels, aggressive M/T or hybrid tires.

  • Wheel sizing: 17x8.5 or 18x9, -6 to -12 offset (beadlocks available)
  • Tire pairing: 35x12.50 M/T or hybrid (KO3, Wildpeak, Toyo R/T Trail)
  • Suspension: Quality shock set or factory off-road suspension

Wheel styles that work

Simple spoke patterns, thick construction, beadlock-capable. Avoid anything thin or pretty - it gets destroyed off-road.

Color recommendations by truck color

  • Black truck: Bronze, machined, black, or red accent wheels
  • White truck: Anything works - gloss black, gunmetal, bronze, machined, chrome
  • Red truck: Black, grey, or machined finishes
  • Grey or Silver truck: Anything - most flexible truck color for wheel pairing
  • Blue truck: Machined, black, or grey - neutral wheels let the blue stand out

Upgrade Warnings

Common upgrades that affect other parts. Plan for these before you spend.

If you upgrade: Lifting beyond 4"

Risk: CV joint angles get severe. Designed for stock height + moderate lift.

What to do: Stay under 4" lift or install diff drop kit.

If you upgrade: Sasquatch wheels on non-Sasquatch trim

Risk: Sasquatch wheels are 17x8.5 with specific offset.

What to do: Verify offset matches your trim before swapping wheels.

If you upgrade: Hardtop replacement

Risk: Hardtop quality issues common. Replacement can be expensive.

What to do: Inspect hardtop seals annually. Aftermarket hardtops available if factory fails.
