    Just got back from making the 5 hour trip to Bakersfield and back to pick these bad boys up, but scored 5 of the black Trail Team wheels with 5 BF Goodrich All Terrain TA KO tires (only 300 miles on them) for a great price of $1700! Maybe spent a little under $100 in gas, but think i made out pretty well. Pics attached, now to get them on the truck! Believe these were takeoffs of a 2012 FJ.

    Nice! I have the regular FJ wheels with 265/75/16 BFG All Terrains on my 2012 SW DCSB Sport 4x4. Get plenty of compliments. IMO the FJ wheels are the best looking TRD wheels for the Tacoma.

    OP - awesome find. Hope they serve you well!

    I've read that the FJ wheels have less backspacing than stock TRD O/R wheels. Because of this, the FJ wheels will give your truck a little wider stance. I have 265/75/16 tires mounted as well, but I'd like a little wider / beefier stance w/out having to jump to a 285 tire (don't want to cut my truck up to fit those tires or lose even more MPG). I thought about adding wheel spacers but I've heard bad things about them (hard on your wheel bearings). Have you noticed a wider stance with the FJ wheels?

    Ill let you know when i get them on this week the difference, but you are correct the backspacing is a bit (less?) than the TRD Offroad or Sport wheels and it will put them a bit farther out, but i do not think its a dramatic amount and may be almost unnoticeable. Ill take some before and after pics, but i have heard the same things about spacers and think i would stay away from them as well.

    The extra width should be noticeable. I get lots of comments about my Taco looking wider than normal..

    The FJ wheels are a 15mm offset and 7,5" wide instead of 7. The end result is that your stance should be a little less than 2" wider than stock (~0.9" per side).

    It's not a great pic, but these wheels have a 10mm offset (~1.1" per side) and the rubber in this pic is inline with the outer edge of the fender flare.

    Anyway, those are great looking wheels OP. I think you'll like the extra width.

    They are tough to find, but sometimes you'll see a pair. Mine have held up well through winter although they have gotten a little lighter.

    I use 303 on my tires, but they do need it badly here. It is also direct sunlight makes them a little lighter.
