    I need to know if i can run some kmc hoss wheels on my 08 trd sport prerunner without a lift . I called my local 4 wheel parts store and they said they would need me to bring it in to see.:confused: the stock trd sport wheels are 17x7.5, +30mm offset, 5.5 back spacing. the kmc hosses i want come in either 17x9, -12mm offset, 4.53 backspace or a 17x9 , 18mm offset, 5.71 backspace. I need to know witch would be as close to stock as possible so i dont go with the wrong setup. also if i can run my bridgstone dueller 265 65 r17's until i can get sone at's. Thanks :D

    the 4.5 should be better because in the future you will not have any trouble with your tires clearing the ucas if you are going to get 285s. but 4 wheel parts have very very bad info.

    I would probably go with the 4.53BS wheel. If you go with the 5.71BS it will put your rim closer to rubbing on the UCA or the sway bar. Also if you decide to lift in the future you will not need to get new wheels. The biggest difference that you will see is the tire will sit out of the wheel well alittle bit.

    As far as using the stack tire, you should be able to find a tire person to put that tire on that rim.

    good luck with your decision

    Thanks for the input guys, it really helped. :) I acually made up three templates to model the cross section of the wheels. Drew them on paper and lined them up to cross reference the difference between the three. Im going with the - 12mm offset, 4.53" backspace. it will stick out 2 1/4" more than stock wheels and i gain 1'' on the inside to give me more room after a lift and some 285'S :cool:
