    These 231mm calibers cleared my oem 16" TRD wheels with no issues. But now i'm running 16x8 SCS F5's also no issues. From what i've read here these calibers won't clear with 15" wheels.

    Upgraded to the LCEngineering kit with EBC green stuff 7000k pads.

    Been on the truck around a week and still bedding in, Wow the pedal feel and reaction time with stopping power is very noticeable.

    I am heavier and taller than stock so this was a needed upgrade.

    Running 16x8 American Racing Chamber Teflons with a decent amount of room for caliper clearance.

    No problems here either. Just remember though that you need at least 16 inch wheels.

    will wheels with 3.5 BS work, or should I just go with 4.5 BS?
