    Yeah I have a 4.5" BS wheel and nothing rubbed anywhere. I added 1.25" Spidertrax hub centric wheel spacers and ir started rubbing all over the inside of the wheel well and frame. These were in 265/75/16's w/ a 16x8 wheel. So I hammered away and fixed it to where there was no rubbing. So when you add spacers it takes away from your original BS, correct? I took the spacers off and sold them anyways now. I'm doing the tundra brake upgrade tomorrow and am hoping I have enough room with the 16x8's w/ 4.5" of BS. Can anyone answer that question for me? Will I have enough room for the larger calipers etc.?

    Methods should be fine. 16s have more fitment issues on 05+ trucks, first gens can fit down to a 15.

    Method Standards with the same 4.75 0mm in a 16 fit fine on my 2008 and my 2001 4runner

    16" Methods SHOULD still be fine. I cant guarantee it but I believe 00-06 Tundras had a 16" option from the factory

    I hope so. I put my finger between the spokes of my rim and the Tacoma caliper and my finger has an inch or 2 on each side. These are the wheels. I'm worried about the inner lip behind the fake bead lock taking up space which would push back the room I need. Here are the specs I just looked up.

    should be fine, but its impossible to say without a test fit. 16s are kind of a dying size tbh
