"Predator" tube steps must be one of the most juvenile and pointless branding exercises of all time.SR5 looks good optioned with black wheels and OEM Predator tube side steps. This one's at Bud Clary Toyota of Moses Lake, Washington.

I agree about the black wheels but I am not a fan of those Predator steps. Just my opinion. I have deposit down on a SR5 Premium with no steps. Gonna wait to see what is available aftermarket or may go without steps all together.SR5 looks much better with the black wheels and Predator steps.
I also am not a fan of those Predator tube steps especially on the TRD Sport, Limited & Platinum trims. I can definitely see some injuries occurring because of the design.I agree about the black wheels but I am not a fan of those Predator steps. Just my opinion.

I has Westin black ovals on my 2016 SR5. They are not yet available for the '25 per Westin's website but when they are, I believe they will cost about half of what the Toyota running boards will cost.I also am not a fan of those Predator tube steps especially on the TRD Sport, Limited & Platinum trims.

I prefer the design of the Toyota Oval Tube Steps available in both Black ( PT938-89250 ) & Silver ( PT938-89251 ). The Black ones are powder coated according to Toyota's description. I'm not sure why the Silver ones aren't which is a bummer.
