    Hey guys,

    I'm a newb at all this so bear with me. Love my new little 4x2, except I'd like to eventually get new and bigger rims and tires. I like the look of the Toyota stock tires and would like to do something like this guy: http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/wheels-tires/2995-got-new-wheels-tires-my-2wd-tacoma.html

    That guy put on 16", but on ebay there's a lot of 17" solara/camry rims that have the same bolt patterns, which should fit like these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_Car...hash=item320275405169&_trksid=p3756.m14.l1318

    My question is, besides losing a bit of power/acceleration and MPG, is there anything else I should be aware of that might affect my truck in a negative way? I just don't want to pay to do all this and run into some balancing or rubbing issue. Plus, I can't find anyone who has put 17" on their 4x2. One more thing I'm going to have to find out from the dealer is if doing this affects any kind of warranty I currently have on my truck. I'd appreciate any guidance you guys suggest.
