    Yea thats what I have. Same size rim and tires. I went with the machined NV though. I like the NV easy to clean and different from most other rims.

    Not to scare you but my double standard rim bolts oxidized in a short 2+ months of NE ohio winter / salt exposure. Just giving you a heads up if you drive through salt.
    I am emailing customer service now to see if there is a solution.

    sea water only contains 3.5% salt.
    Road salt starts out 100% salt. Then get diluted as snow melts
    Road salt formulation includes:
    Sodium cloride
    magnesium
    calcium
    potassium chloride
    Sodium acetate
    calcium
    magnesium acetate
    calcium hydroxide

    I washed my truck weekly to prevent oxidation, didn't help.

    I was looking at getting a set of NVs as well. I am not sure though of size.
    I have 265/70/17 Goodyear Duratracs. I dont know much about wheels and tires, but I believe this is the largest I can go on stock suspension/wheels. I do have 1.5" lift, and wouldnt be opposed to 3" later, but likely not going to go 3".

    not sure what size wheel I need? can I get one that could accommodate a larger tire and not need UCA's and all that?

    This is what I found online:
    TRD Sport Alloy Wheels: 17x7.5, +30 mm offset, 5.5" backspacing, 6x5.5" bolt pattern, 108 mm hub bore

    I dont want to run spacers just to run new wheels.

    any issues with 16's? did you use spacers? and do you still have plenty or room for the calipers?
