    Hi there guys, hope you are staying safe.
    My wife and I are expecting our first newborn baby very shortly, so to be safe, I was wanting to get a spare set of wheels to mount some dedicated winter tires on. I saw these OEM Toyota ones locally (off of a 2002 Toyota Tacoma SR5 4x4 apparently) I believe they are 16x7”, +15mm offset and were also OEM to some tundras/sequoias. Do you think these would fit my 2017 4x4 SR5? I tried searching, but only saw threads for 1st/2nd Gen owners wondering about forward compatibility.

    I've done no research on the subject. However there's a guy in town that has 3rd gen OR Tacoma wheels on a 3rd gen 4runner that came with the wheels in your picture. It looks awesome. Considering that there are no other obvious mods I don't think he's the kind of guy that would be capable or willing to make something fit that wouldn't otherwise work. You're likely good to go but I'd wait for someone more knowledgeable than myself to chime in to be sure.

    Yep, they should fit. I test fit a set from a buddy and didn't notice any caliper rub.
