    Are you talking about the key for spline drive lug nuts such as gorilla lugs?

    Use a 3/4 socket or I belive the tire wrench that comes with your vehicle will fit over the end of your new lug nut socket....if you are talking about the key for the factory wheel locks . . If should be by your jack or in your glove box

    Just put on a set of 16" in black - looks mean with new Hankooks on it. I wish DTD had the black lugs though.

    Strongly considering these as a replacement wheel for my 2012 access cab base SR5 4x4, no lift.

    Most of you guys have either lifts, bigger tires, etc.; not many pics of ones on stock trucks with stock tires.

    I'd like either stock 265-size tires or one size bigger (265/75/16 or 265/70/17).

    Can anyone pick me the wheel and tire size that will have NO rub on a stock SR5 suspension (leaving the mud flaps on)? I'm thinking that since the backspacing and offset in the 16x8 or 17x8 is going to put the wheel out a little bit from the stock wheel, that I'm probably looking at the stock tire size to be safe.

    Anyone have pics of a near-stock size, on a stock suspension?

    Thanks.

    You've gotta share more about those center caps; they are not the FJ ones that everyone is ordering.

    Thanks!

    And the -10 offset too, but no mud flaps. Did you take the flaps off because they were rubbing?

    I'm guessing your tires are the 265/70/16?

    Thanks.

    Here are my new Hankook Dynapros in 265/75/r16. No lift and 50k miles on a stock SR5 suspension. I did indeed need to remove the front flaps, but no rubbing after that. I'm fine with that.

    No I took them off the first day I bought the truck because I hate mudflaps. And yes my tires are the 265/70/16. I'm pretty sure you wouldn't rub the mudflaps with my same rim and tire size. They only stick out maybe half an inch more than stock.

    Those are 0. Honestly even they stick out a little more than I like, but they're ok. The tread is still inside the fender, but the sidewalls are outside the fender as others have mentioned. No way would I want the -10s just for looks but I guess there are some setups where the -10s work better.
