    I'm thinking about buying some of these and getting 285's.

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/16-4-TRD-TR...ash=item4d36475ac1:g:lUYAAOSw3ydVxMW1&vxp=mtr

    I currently have the OME heavy lift, and my TC UCA's should be coming next week. I also have a Pelfreybilt front bumper, so I'm not worried about front rubbing. Furthermore, I chopped my flaps, so that should help too. I have a set of 265 K02's with 10k on them that I'll need to sell.

    Does anyone know if the above rims will rub the UCA's w/out spacers? From a strictly engineering standpoint, I gotta object the spacers, because I like my wheel bearings.

    Also, where is the best place to buy a set like this?

    Note that those are not real TRD wheels. They are Chinese knock offs, note it says 'style' in the title. The trail team wheels are also some of the heaviest OEM wheels (if you care), which while I like them is the reason I did not get them. There was another thread where someone ordered those Chinese versions from Ebay and they came in way heavier than the heavy OEM wheel. If going that route be sure to get OEM. Note on the ebay page it says brand=aftermarket. It should say OEM/Toyota.

    I was worried they weren't oem. I also found these which I'd imagine are oem: http://trdparts4u.toyotaofdallas.com/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=-9586

    Now after looking more and more and more, I'm seriously considering the FN's with 0mm offset and 4.5" offset. They move the centerline of the wheel about 0.931" (~15/16") away from the frame as compared to the stock 30mm offsets. So, if you compare that to the TRD 10mm offsets, they are really only moving the centerline about 0.143" (~9/64"). The best part is, they'll let me run 285 75 16's with no problem from what I can tell.
