Getting new wheels...

My truck...
2013 Tacoma Access Cab
V6 4x4 MT-6


Truck used for...
- weekly driving
- towing (short distances mostly)
- light hauling (short distances)

I am going from the stock steel wheels to TRD Baja wheels (PTR18-35090-GR)



The stock wheels are 245/75-R16
The New tires I would like would be a 265/75-R16

I was just wondering...
- If anyone else has done something similar?
- How to change the Speedometer?
- Any possible issues with rubbing?
- Should the front of truck be leveled?
- Any and everything else I should consider....

 

Nice truck! Shouldn't have any problems. Speedo wont be off by more than 1-2 mph at highway speed.
Don't think they will rub at all, but I did my level kit at the same time I went to 265/75-16, so mine
have plenty of room.

 

Should be perfect, and I think your speedo will actually be MORE accurate than it is now. With the stock 265/70/16's, the speedo shows a little higher than actual speed.

 

I don't think I want to do anything more than a front leveling kit (if i do anything) what are the go to brands? I just want to make sure that I add parts that are of OEM quality or better.

 

I have the same wheels (except bronze) and same size tires. I had no issues with rubbing and my truck is stock height. I didn't really notice any difference with the speedo either.

I will say the wheels will look great and it makes the stance a bit wider too which is nice. Here's mine to give you an idea.

 

I love those bronze wheels

Thanks all!

 

This might be a dumb question, but where did you buy your wheels? I have been looking into getting a black pair myself.

 

I got mine used from the wheels and tires marketplace on this website... I think that is the only way that you can buy some of the colors without a matching vin.

 

You'll be fine with the setup you've decided on.Speedo as well!Adjustable Bilstein 5100's are a great way to level your truck.You can use the factory OEM springs and UCA's(upper control arms).

 

Oh ok, thanks.

 

I have the black ones, got them from TRDParts4U, which is basically the Toyota of Dallas parts department. I have ordered other OEM parts from them as well. They don't always have the black ones in stock, and like the previous person said, some dealers may require a VIN number. The black ones were a special edition FJ wheel.

 

I got mine from my local Toyota dealer, took two days for them to get them in and then they threw them on the truck for me. I probably could have had it done slightly cheaper elsewhere but it wasn't worth the hassle.

 

looks great!!
