    Hello, i was wondering if anyone knows the factory standard rim offset & back spacing for 09 tacoma sport factory rim size 17X7.5 tires 265/65/17 i am adding a NEW rim size 17X9 and tire size 265/70/17 so i NEED to know the rim offset needed for the NEW rim(s) as you have 3 choices obviously, but i do not want to purchase the incorrect size.... + i will need to know the back spacing size of 4 & 1/2" OR 5"inch. Do you know OR know where i might find out this answer that actually makes sense to a normal person like myself who isn't a certified mechanic? PLEASE HELP ME OUT WiTH THIS PROBLEM. I would greatly appreciate it as it makes a HUGE difference. Thank You!!!!

    I believe the stock wheels are 5.75" backspace. Not sure on the offset. You can run 265/70-17 on the stock rim with no problems though.

    Ideally, a 4.5" backspace would be what you want on new wheels.

    Sorry to jack the thread, but...
    I am looking at a XD wheel that has a 5.0 BS. What problems will I have? Or will it just not work? Thanks!
