    Okay, still have yet to purchase any wheels or tires for my 2014 TRD Offroad Taco. After reading my previous thread, I found a few fallacies however. The tires I had then and still are 265 70 R16 Falken Wildpeak AT3W's, and I'm running stock 16 inch TRD Offroad Toyota wheels. The truck is not lifted or leveled. Suspension is completely stock. My tires are in good shape, so I see no need in buying new ones. The wheels have gotta go though. I'm looking at getting the new Gear Alloy Barricades (pictures included) in a 16×8 0. I have read that the stock wheels run a +30 offset, so I see myself gaining roughly an inch of "stance". Thoughts? Comments? Concerns?

    I would.....sell the old tire/wheel combo

    buy new tires to go with the new wheels

    shop will prob mount/balance free....

    or they will charge you $60+ to dismount/remount old tires

    but that's me....

    Nice wheel. I replace tires every 5 years regardless of mileage. So personally I’d do both.

    1" extra spaced out is fine. Mine are 33" diameter and flush with the wheel wells in the front and it doesn't rub... any more. Or less.
