    Thinking about going with this exact same setup. Did you have any issues with rubbing? Did you have to remove the front air dam?
    Hows the ride quality with regards to vibrations and noise when compared to stock ? Any affect on MPGs?

    Thanks in advance!

    No rubbing at all with the 265/75 wildpeaks on stock suspension. I removed the front air dam right when I bought the truck but I don’t think it would be anywhere close to rubbing.

    Ride quality is great, no issues with getting them balanced when I bought them and have put about 15k on my truck since getting them. For MPG I didn’t notice any difference but I also only had the truck for a couple weeks before getting my wheels and tires.

    Good to hear. Might pull the trigger on these soon. Love the meaty look with 16s. Looking at bronze tho...im a sucker for bronze wheels haha.

    Yeah that air dam is pretty ugly and ive wanted to take mine off too but ive heard it actually helps with the MPG ...I do a lot of highway driving. What do you average? 19-20?

    Perfect! Exactly what i ordered. Thanks!

    I wasn’t 100% sure but I figured if SCS was recommending them they’d work.

    Thank you! Just got my mr150 installed and they sent me the short style and the technician figured they should have the ET as they only got 7 full rotations, I'll be ordering these and swapping them over. Glad I saw this today!

    I'll have the ET nuts swapped on tomorrow, but for now this is the MR150, no rubbing or caliper clearance issues!

    I see your up in Edmonton, I’m in Calgary. Where did you order your wheels and tires from? I’ve been on the fence with that same setup for a few months now.

    I ordered the wheels and lug nuts from www.partsengine.ca they have great customer service and pricing.
    The tires I got at tirecraft on sale, 265/75/16, I think they were 930 after taxes/install.

    Ok thanks. I’ve had the bronze ones in my cart at partsengine for a while. They seem to be the best price in Canada. I think I want to go with 17’s though.

    Any know of anywhere that has a bronze 16x8 0mm set of the MR150s in stock? Everywhere I look has a 2 month back order.
    :help:
    Need new rims to fix the alignment issues the previous owner caused on my 4Runner.

    Finally got them on after waiting almost a month! I was a little worried about how the bronze would look on red but I love it. p

    Couldn't find many pics of these on 3rd gens so heres a few extra for anyone thinking about the MR150s.
