    Hello guys,
    I've tried researching on this forum and I can't find anything on this, but I drive a 2013 Toyota Tacoma doublecab prerunner. I found these wheels which I like

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Eagle-Alloy...Parts_Accessories&hash=item564fa1ea87&vxp=mtr

    The specs are 8" wide, 4" BS and -11 offset. Would these fit without me having to use wheel spacers to clear the brake calipers? If they do would they stick out any from the fenders? I really just plan on using these with my stock 245/75/16 tires which are brand new, I don't plan on using bigger tires until these run out(another 50k miles)

    Thank you for the help!

    The only concern should be clearing the calipers. The amount they push the tires out will be comparable to a 1.5" spacer on the stock wheels.

    Those should work but the ideal numbers are 4.5" BS with a -12mm offset.

    The 4.5" BS would come with a 9" wide rim, the 8" with that offset is 4" BS. I don't think a 9" rim would be recommended for a tire that skinny as well.

    I am looking at the exact same wheel for my truck. I have googled and found other tacomas with them. I have the same concern with clearing TRD caliper. Anyone help with clearance question?

    I ordered a set of these and they do indeed hit the caliper, just barely. I have heard others say they just barely clear. This seems to be an issue with lots of the 16 inch wheels, even with 4 inch back spacing.

    I wonder if going to a 17 would help, since its the back of the wheel that is hitting, I doubt it.

    Right now I am trying to decide what to do, use a spacer, grind the caliper, or find different wheels.
