Tacoma Limited Wheel Covers and Alternatives

[MRHAMR]

Traded in my 2019 access cab for a new Limited package truck. This is my third Taco (1st generation Limited, and the TRD Off Road I traded in). My other two came with sharp allow wheels as part of the trim packages and I kind of take them for granted on higher level trucks. The new Limited was a bit of a spontaneous decision after the wife rode in it and fell in love with the improved ride and comfort, so I took advantage. Overall very happy and still a loyal Tacoma devotee but when did to become acceptable to put the equivalent of hub caps on a $55K truck?
I’m curious If anyone else is a bit aghast that one of the top trim packages has wheel covers vs. attractive alloy wheels.
More importantly, can anyone advise me what is under the wheel covers and if the bare wheels are attractive to save me figuring out how to remove them just to see? just looking for alternatives in case I find I can’t convince myself to settle for the chrome hub cap look without investing another grand or so into other wheels.

Putting plastic covered wheels on a limited is shameful.

I plasti-dipped mine as a temporary measure.

Getting the factory plastic and adhesive off will be a big challenge - i think.

The Trailhunter hunter spare wheel looks like the limited wheel without the plastic.

Please report back if you remove the plastic from the limited wheels. That might be an option for me later.
