1.5" past stock TRD sport rims

Just to double check what I learned reading the threads. Can anyone confirm to me that if I want to have my stock TRD rims/tires to stick out 1.5 more inches, instead of buying 1.5 spacers I can buy new rims and get 8" wide rims with a 4.5" back space? Correct? Thanks

 

Come one, someone has to know the answer

 

bump for answer

 

Say goodbye to your paint if you have your tires out that far

 

Really, what about a inch then. Simply getting a 4.5 backspace should do that right?

 

I have some custom flaps by Renotacoma and removed my OEM flaps. I run 255 KM2s. On the long weekend I still have rocks kick up all down the side of my truck when we went wheeling. With my stock 265s and 1.25 spidertrax wheel spacers it moved my tires just flush with the fenders

 

so what would that be equal to in a KMC endro rim? 17x8 4.5 back space?

 

Correct.

 

What size tire you planning on running?

 

i have 265/70/17 BFG a/t's right now and will be putting them on the new rims. I just would rather get rims then add spacers but the 1.25 is probably what I want

 

The 0.5 wider wheel will pull the tire in 0.25", so even though the wheels stick out 1.5" more, the tires will only stick out 1.25 more.

 

^^^ he knows his stuff

 

cool so I should just go with the 17x8 4.5 bs? and then the obvious tacoma 6 bolt pattern? Is there anything else I should be aware of?

 

You should make sure that the hub bore is greater than 106 mm.

 

With just this much sticking out I get the occasional loud ping of a rock high up on the door, let alone what hits the rocker panel. And I have custom flaps from Reno also

For what it's worth.



16x8 with 4.5 I believe. . .

 

that looks perfect to me. Love it. Thanks for the pm too I will look into that

 

thanks a lot for the help. If I have any other questions I will post again but Im hoping I got it figured out

 

seems like they old sell 17x9. what difference should this make?

 

It will stick the wheel out another inch and the tire out another half inch, compared to the 8"
