    ^ im pretty damn sure the 05+ tacos are hub centric, just look at the way our wheels mount onto the hubs. Have you taken off and put your wheels back on yet? Then again, I may be wrong

    IMO get hub centric wheels if you have a choice, it makes it way safer

    Axles aren't hub centric or lug centric. Not sure what you meant by "05+ tacos are lug centric".

    Whatever mounts to an axle of a vehicle is hubcentric or lugcentric.

    The "centricity" is the manner in which the wheel or spacer mounts to the axle.

    Seeing the third gen section forced me to get a Ford...

    well HE didnt buy the spacers...they were given to him from someone that got 2 sets...but anyways...my AP UCA's are made just like the TC's, but mine squeak like a bitch every few weeks where they dont...essentially made the same...same uniballs...not the same product
