    Yea, I noticed that too.
    Just an oversight.

    With the Ford hub being 87.1mm, would that make these hub centric @ 87.0mm? (for the Ford, obvioulsy)

    I guess not. .1 is still .1.

    I would say so, because .1 mm is insanely thin, about as thin as printer paper. Can't have it machined too precise or it wouldn't go on very easily.

    Absolutely nothing.
    It's going to take a phone call, or some personal experience to gain or lose my confidence.

    Found a pic of the Venomrex lug nuts that I'd say further suggests these are lug centric wheels.

    ...and then they have this statement.

    "All Venomrex wheels are engineered applications specific for use with factory hardware."

    I picked up a set on Black Friday sale, love the look and seem like a high quality wheel. I put a couple coats of ceramic on them for easy cleaning.

    These are really good looking rims. :thumbsup:

    Can you answer as to hub / lug centric?

    To be honest I didn’t even ask, I was more concerned that the 9” width and -12mm might stick out past the fender which was not the look I was going for, turns out they are perfect. When I called to order they said they were specifically designed for Tacoma/4runner installation so didn’t look much past that. The tire shop put them on with the stock tpms and a set of the lugnuts I purchased with the wheels

    Looking at the lugnuts I’d say lugcentric

    By my measurements a -12 offset would put your front wheels about 1/2" outside the fender flare. (just a little less in the rear, IIRC)
    Does that look/sound about right?
    I'd been considering the +12 offset, but yours look 'right'.

    Yea, I've come to that conclusion.

    I’d say the wheel face is flush with the fender, tire bulges slightly past.

    Check the "lifetime" warranty. Even on their website, they state "reasonable use on public roads and highways". Doesn't say anything about off road use.
