    Yep! didn't cancel my order so the only true way to know is to have them test fitted.

    @methodracewheelsalex I think everyone is just making sure that the 16s will fit on the Tacomas 3rd Gen. I got a email confirming it but confirmation on here will go a long way.

    That was me that replied to the email you sent to info@methodracewheels.com!
    We got this email from our engineers this morning:

    "16” wheels will fit newer 3rd generation Tacoma’s (2015+). As far as we know there is no difference on the brakes between an SR5, TRD Off-Road, TRD Sport or TRD Pro.


    16” wheels will NOT fit a 5th generation 4Runner (2010+) as it hits the caliper"

    Hope this helps!

    @methodracewheelsalex thanks for the quick reply. Maybe you should pass this info around to your reps, especially the one that deals with the Vivid account since according to them they checked with you guys to confirm the 16” wouldn’t fit.

    Vivid is my account and I never got a call from them. Unfortunately its a little more difficult to relay information to companies like that because they have generic fitment guides that aren't always deadly accurate.
    They also tend to carry many other brands which makes it hard to be an expert on our products. Its usually best to ask the manufacturer.
    Any questions you may have you can contact me here or email alex@methodracewheels.com.

    Thanks guys!

    Hah! I knew that was coming.
    I'll do my best to put something together but in the meantime we have a Summer Sale with some sizes and finishes available for half off ish.
    I'll post another thread with availability in a few minutes here.

    Great looking wheel! I wish there was some gray variant (titanium, gunmetal?) and that @methodracewheelsalex showed up earlier. I ended up ordering some SCS F5's but I love this wheel, too!

    @methodracewheelsalex well that’s even more B.S. since my email conversation with them was that they reached out to you specifically. Good to know.

    I really like these wheels but they are rather heavy compared to other 17” rims I’m looking at.
