    I'd like to put different wheels but use the same tires on my 2013 Sport but I'm not sure of a few things like will they fit I asked the seller and he said they may look a bit stretched . Whats that mean ? And the offset is different so I'm not sure if that will affect the ride and the warranty on the truck .
    Here's a link to the wheels and my existing tires are 265/65/17 the wheels are 17x9 w/1 offset ?

    Thank you for your input...

    I have the exact same rims, same size on a 2005 sport with 265/65/17 tires and they fit perfectly. They also have an offset so they stick out past the fenders a bit..

    i have the -12 offset, i only got them on about 2 months ago so can't really speak for the finish yet, i did put some wheel wax i got off Amazon on them and that keeps some of the brake crap and grime off

    You can use one of the many tire/wheel calculators online to compare sizes. Here's one from :

    Thanks, I tried looking at that but it made no sense to me that's why I started the thread :) will the 1 offset stick past the fenders more or less than the -12 ? Does the center-cap "screw on" or "snap-on"

    ^^^ Promise that was the last question .:) Thank you for your help.

    hey i dont mind at all ask away :D the center cap has 8 allen bolts on it, only 2 of them actually thread into the rim itself to hold on the cap, the others are just for symmetry

    Thank you, I'll feel a lot better ordering them now. I was just a little concerned because if you order online then mount a tire and they end with clearance trouble your kinda SOL returning them.

    I've just installed 17' KO2's on my Tacoma and in the excitement of the moment :) I forgot to buy a spare of the same size. Oh well. Now I am wondering, would a 17' tire fit in the factory spare tire allocation under the belly? Also, would it be too big of a deal not to buy one and keep the 16' factory spare for emergency in case the 17' won't fit?
