No 16" aftermarket wheels will fit????? WHAT??

[rachunter]

Good grief this is wearing me out trying to find wheels for my 2008 TRD -Off road Tacoma. I want to stay with 16" wheels and so after searching and looking at every post I could find for the last week.

I finally think I have a pretty good idea of what I want and I call 4 wheel parts.
I did not get the guys name but he just told that NO ONE makes a 16" wheel that will fit on a 2005+ Tacoma. I told him that while searching the net I have seen several pics of 16" wheels on Tacoma's His reply was...
" People drive drunk everyday but they will not tell you that they do"

What??????????????

Please someone tell me this is not normal service from 4wheelparts.

He would not even listen to anything I had to say because he already knew it all.

I have looked at all of the wheel threads....but I ask that if you have a 16" chrome wheel on you 2nd gen Tacoma please post it on this thread. I plan to keep calling until I get the same guy and once I get his name I will direct him to this thread.

Thanks

I spoke with them a couple weeks ago, their 16" wheels fit fine, but the wheels they offer are not a 'bling' wheel.

i had 16" after market moto metal wheels on my taco and they fit just fine, and i also bought them from 4 wheel parts

They tried that shit w/me. I told him I wanted the 16's and haulted his sails pitch for 17's and 18's. Dont shop through them. Research through the actuall wheel make, ie... ProComp, Dick Cepeck, Motto Metals. Then when you find your pick, check the specs and make the order. If 4 Wheel Parts BS's you, move to different retailer.

I asked them today if they had a Dyno, or knew of a reputible place in Raliegh, the dude basically stopped me short with, "No, there is not much you can do to your truck." Obviously very clueless of Tacomas.

Anyways, here is my 16's, result of sticking to what I wanted.

what a phuching idiot. How dares he.

Hes partially correct. A lot of 16" wheels have a problem with being unable to clear your calipers.

I personally like the Procomp 7089 and Wheelers 16" wheels.

First, Let me say hello to all . I`m a newbie. I Live in Franklin NC .I own a 06 Tacoma Access Cab. I`m a retired USAF officer . I love my truck but I`m going to ask a question that`s probably been asked over & over again! I`ve got 16" steelies. I want 16" alloys. I guess the safest thing to do is to go to Asheville & buy TRD wheels they have there. The dreaded TPMS issue comes up ! I see nice TRD wheels on Ebay , They specify that the TPMS sensors are not included. This means I`d have to buy the wheels go to Toyota (60 miles away) Buy sensors to fit the alloys , get them coded ,& be done with it. I live in a small town ,The tire dealers here don`t really care about TPMS or they`re not familiar with tpms differences. That`s why I figure I`d bite the bullet & buy the whole shooting match at Toyota,I presume the`y take care of everything. It would cost more ,but I want the wheels. I really am not familiar with what can & cannot be done. Can you guys help with suggestions ,& facts about this whole mess!
