    I have a 1998 Tacoma and I'm getting a killer deal on some 2019 Four runner wheels. They aren't TRD wheels, just the plain 17" aluminum ones. My only concern is that my Tacoma has manual locking hubs from the factory. My plan was to use a hole saw and cut the middle out of the center for the hub to come through. Has any one tried this or know if they will work?

    I have mods
    They should have a hole already with just the center cap covering it. Or is the hole not large enough for the locking hubs?

    You don’t need to keep the wheel caps. I’m running 2016 TRD OR wheels and the manual hubs fit fine without the caps.
