    Any pictures of a 2.5-3" lift with these wheels and the biggest tires that will fit with no rub? And what size will fit with these wheels (back spacing)?

    Just came back in stock! PM sent to you. Thanks! :)

    PM sent to you as well. Thank you too!

    275/65R18 tires fit with a 1.75" - 3.0" lift and no rubbing other than the mud flaps. You can use any tire in this size, all-terrain or maximum (mud) terrain.

    Example photos:

    285/65R18 tires fit with a 1.75" - 3.0" lift and minimal rubbing on the mud flaps with the majority of all-terrain tires. Maximum / mud terrain tires will likely require trimming the over fenders, and particularly aggressive mud terrain tires may require a cab mount chop to keep from rubbing.

    2.5" - 3.0" lifted w/ 285/65R18 aggressive Nitto Trail Grappler M/T tires:

    Torque rating for these wheels and lug nuts?

    Not sure what the "rating" is, but I torque mine to 90 pounds. Pretty common torque for aftermarkets.

    Sweet! I love your setup man. Very original!

    I don't have the BFDs in 17", but we do have a similar from Konig:

    http://www.fnwheels.com/new-products/konig-six-shooter/

    You're welcome to come check them out if you live near me. :)

    The torque is actually related to stud size and not so much the wheels themselves. We recommend torquing the lug nuts 85 ft / lbs. Generally speaking, 12mm studs / lugs such as those on the Tacoma should be torqued to 80 ft / lbs to 90 ft / lbs.

    Furthermore, I highly recommend that all lug nuts are tightened gradually and alternately with hand tools in a star pattern, and then finished off by torquing to spec (80 ft / lbs to 90 ft / lbs) in a star patter. I always go over the lug nuts three times with the torque wrench to make sure everything is properly tightened. New wheels and new lug nuts should be re-torqued after 100 miles.

    Impact guns should ALWAYS be avoided when tightening down lug nuts on ANY wheels (not just these wheels).

    90 ft / lbs is a good number.

    ^^^Thanks man!!! Maybe the first all wheel drive looking xrunner ever? Yeah I just retorqued all my wheels to 85/90 lbs... It actually helped in my steering wheel vibrations at high speeds.

    No problem! Definitely the first AWD X-Runner that I've ever seen! It's pretty amazing to me!

    Glad re-torquing helped. Perhaps the lug nuts had loosened up a hair, or maybe they weren't seated just quite right from the initial installation. I'm glad to hear it helped out. :thumbsup:

    Congratulations! That is a beautiful new truck!!!

    That would be awesome if you matched it up with a set of BFDs. I'm such a huge fan of your Tacoma build, and I'd be honored to provide the wheels for your 4Runner.
