    Hey guys. I need some help/advice. I've tried searching with some success at answering my questions. No need to troll and tell me to try searching. I have an 07 Base 4x4 Access Cab that I bought new. I don't have a lift (no real need and I tow a lower travel trailer). Ive been running the stock steel wheels (16x7) with Nitto Terra Grapplers 265/70/R16.

    I'm planning on getting the FJ Black Trail Team Rims (16x 7.5 15 MM Offset) and General Grabber Reds (265/75/R16). Couple questions.
    1. Because I'm running the steelies I believe I need to change my TPMS sensors to the Alloy Wheel TPMS sensor, correct? Is the a more cost effective AM solution?
    2. I need to change to the mag style lug nuts w/washer for the Alloy wheels as opposed to the Acorn style the steelies need, correct? Are there black mag style lug nuts that are appropriate for this set up?
    3. Will I have any rubbing issues with this setup?
    4. Anyone out there running this or a similar combo on stock suspension? Pics?
    5. How much wider will this be? Bushwhacker Flares going on next week.

    Thanks guys. I really appreciate any help I get. Just don't want to order something and have a problem that was avoidable.

    1. Because I'm running the steelies I believe I need to change my TPMS sensors to the Alloy Wheel TPMS sensor, correct? Is the a more cost effective AM solution? Yes, or flip the TMPS around, tire shop may know what to do.
    2. I need to change to the mag style lug nuts w/washer for the Alloy wheels as opposed to the Acorn style the steelies need, correct? Are there black mag style lug nuts that are appropriate for this set up? Yes, not sure on the black lugs.
    3. Will I have any rubbing issues with this setup? Most likely no.
    4. Anyone out there running this or a similar combo on stock suspension? Pics?
    5. How much wider will this be? Bushwhacker Flares going on next week. It'll be wider, but not enough in my opinion to fill out the bushwackers.

    I ran that setup with my Gen II for about six months before I installed a 2" lift. My wheels came with lug nuts. They were normal acorns. No problems. Looked fine.

    So you were running stock suspension with 265/75/16? Did the lug nuts have the built on washer?
