    New wheels / tires.

    Wheels: 16" alloys off of an 07 highlander. These have the exact offset and hub diameter of the stock stealies.

    Tires: bf Goodrich t/a 235/70 r16. 29 in diameter

    No rubbing no black box mod gave me an 1.5" lift over stock tires

    I was looking for the same wheels but came across this set from a RAV4 first. The tires are 235 60 R16 and will replace with 235 70 R16 when they wear out.
    Check your local Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace - the ads come up often - at least here in NJ

    Yep, they bolted right up and I haven't noticed any issues with backspacing, offset, hub clearance, etc.

    They are the factory wheels from my '09 Mustang GT, just for reference. :cool:

    I haven't posted in the 5 lug section before. I got my truck back in February and I think it's looking pretty good. Added fog lights, swapped all interior and exterior lights with LEDs (except my rear turn signals), and put a bed cover on. I also got nicer tires and just painted my wheels yesterday. It's kept me busy, but I'm loving it.

    ^ Nice work! ^
    I love the contrast of the red lugs on the black wheels, very cool.

    Thank you! The paint didn't hold up too great putting the lugs back on, but it isn't noticable unless you're up close

    It took a little afro engineering... and I still have a few alignment issues and in need of chrome trim pieces... but I finally got the front bumper mounted on.

    Fat Bob's lift kit, 30's on stock steelies, lunchbox locker in the rear, and a ton of other general mods and additions to help the utility of the truck for my particular uses.
    Last weekend we installed Roadmaster active suspension and set them at the 40% load setting. Raised up the rear significantly making the truck almost perfectly level. Keep in mind I have a shell and bed drawers loaded. Truck has aal as well. This was the perfect solution.

    Added aux input to the OEM cassette/cd deck for my iPhone via the cd changer input.

    Upgraded to 15” steel wheels and 215-70R15 Geolandar AT tires. I like the raw look and more importantly, these tires are snow rated for the coming PNW winter.
