    i dont want to deal with worrying about stuff fitting or needing spacers so i figured going with an oem wheel would be best and these are nice. there shouldnt be any issues fitting these on my 95 4wd taco correct?

    They will sit 1" further in that your stockers.

    Stock backspacing on 2nd gens is 5.5", and it's 4.5" for 1st gens.

    What size tires do you plan on running?

    Yeah I think you will need spacers.

    It's really not that hard to find aftermarket wheels that will fit your truck....

    yea i know its not that hard to find a set but all the ones ive been looking at need spacers or longer wheel studs ect.. i might go with a set of wheelers steelies but honestly im not a super big fan of them looks wise. i like the cragar soft 8's but everyone knows those are a pain to get to fit. if there was another set of good looking steels that clear the caliper i would most likely do that
