The Toyota Land Cruiser 300 is the most capable production SUV ever made. Its wheels need to be equally serious -- lighter than cast for better fuel economy, stronger than cast for trail durability, and distinctive enough to set one LC300 apart from the next.
The Land Cruiser 300 is built to go anywhere, and factory cast wheels reflect that rugged brief -- they are heavy, conservative, and designed to survive. But surviving is not the same as performing. Custom forged wheels reduce weight at each corner while being structurally stronger than the factory items, improving both on-road dynamics and off-road recovery. The Toyota Land Cruiser 300 weighs enough that factory cast wheels -- typically 15-17 kg each -- make the suspension work harder than it needs to. Switching to forged monoblock rims at around ~11 kg per wheel gives the air suspension and dampers less unsprung mass to manage, improving ride comfort and body control simultaneously.
The B-te Noire Ver 1.3 combines rugged visual weight with modern detailing. Six broad spokes with chamfered edges radiate from a raised centre hub, giving the wheel a substantial presence that matches the Land Cruiser's body-on-frame solidity. The spoke faces are flat and wide -- designed to shrug off stone chips and trail debris while still looking sharp on the school run.

The weight saving from forged aluminium is not just a number on a spec sheet. Reducing unsprung mass by 15-17 to ~11 kg per wheel means the suspension and brakes work more efficiently at every speed. If you are considering improving ride quality and presence, this is where to start. More on the differences in our Forged For Performance A Guide To Exclusive Wheel And Tire Upgrades.
The B-te Noire Ver 1.3 is part of Hodoor's AI wheel design programme. The system generates thousands of unique wheel concepts, each one engineered to be manufacturable as a forged monoblock. You are not choosing from a static catalogue -- the AI produces designs tuned to the Toyota Land Cruiser 300's specific dimensions, brake clearances, and visual proportions.
If none of the AI-generated options are quite right, our in-house designer works from hand sketches. Either route leads to the same CNC-machined 6061-T6 billet, the same balancing and inspection process, and the same four-to-eight-week production timeline.
Are forged wheels strong enough for off-road use on the Land Cruiser?
Forged 6061-T6 aluminium is significantly stronger than cast aluminium. The forging process aligns the grain structure, making the wheel more resistant to impact damage from rocks, ruts, and trail debris. Many rally and desert racing teams use forged wheels for exactly this reason.
Will these fit the GR Sport variant with Kinetic Dynamic Suspension?
Yes. The bolt pattern (5x150), centre bore (110.1 mm), and brake clearances are identical across all LC300 variants, including the GR Sport. The KDSS system does not affect wheel fitment.
Can I run all-terrain tyres on these wheels?
Absolutely. For 20" wheels: 275/55R20 or 285/55R20 in all-terrain compounds. For 22": 285/45R22 works well for a road-biased all-terrain. See our wheel sizing guide for more pairing options.
