    Those center caps are hideous IMO, I'm not a fan of center caps that stick out I rather have no center caps & actually prefer many wheels that way (round centers), makes the rim look like it has a deeper dish, but it depends on the wheel. On both my prev sets of wheels I ran no centers as well as on my prev car.

    are those 17’s or 16’s? If 16, do they clear tundra brake upgrade? Do you have a front shot to show fender to wheel relation?

    If you don’t get the -25mm offset you can ask them to get a flush black cap for the 0 mm offset wheels.

    I am running BFG 285/75R16's and they rub on the frame, so I believe I do need -25 mm offset rims.
    I sure wish SCS would come out with a silver F5 with center caps! I called around and it would cost a lot to repaint them silver and the lack of a center cap is a deal breaker for me, anyway.

    I got the -25mm offset and they are perfect

    Had some old 5-stars in real nice shape from my Son's 4Runner. These are my favorite 16" Toyota wheels.

    Need to paint the center caps.

    Put on some new 265/75R16 KO2's via Costco.

    Totally agree...either flat caps or no caps for me too. I was just stating that they do come with caps, ugly caps that is:

    I was running 285/75-16 Duractracs on my F5 wheels with -25mm and it still would rub the frame at full lock. Now I'm on Cooper STT Pros with the same size wheels (16x8) but 0 offset. Seems to rub just about the same.

    No idea what my wheels are, and they're filthy in the pic, but I think they're okay. Anybody know what they are?

    my rims are about $110 and nothing crazy, but the price is good for some alloys with a -6mm offset, 16x8. I was even able to fit 1" taller tires with minimal rubbing on stock suspension

    I know this page is for rims but I noticed the exhaust so I HAVE to ask, does it make the truck sound more ricey or a little deeper?

    By any chance are you running the 231 mm tundra brakes? I want to shoot on these if they fit, if not I’ll probably get the FJ wheels :/

    I like these factory 15" ones.Ive noticed the sidewalls of my tires are starting to crack so debating new wheels in a 16"..Maybe a newer factory style.I restored these a year ago with duplicolor wheel paint.They still look brand new.
