    Anybody know if the Walker Evans 501 legends in a size 16x8 will clear the 231mm 13WL Tundra brakes?

    I have the brake upgrade right now but I'm going to be getting new wheels soon for my first gen and I'm trying to ditch the spacers

    If my buddy get's his truck running I can test fit one of my 501 legends on his 1st gen with the 13WL upgrade.
    I know the wheels come really close to the calipers on my 2nd gen.

    That would be so awesome if you could!! Please follow up if you get the chance :cheers:
    Yeah Ive heard mixed things about them clearing tbh. I know you have a 2nd gen but a lot of people seem to say they will clear and a lot of people seem to also say that they won't clear :goingcrazy:

    I tried to take pictures of my caliper to wheel clearance, but nothing really shows it since the wheel comes out towards the end, the inner most part feels like less than a fingers width of room.

    They do look pretty snug. But even if they were to rub by a mm I think I'd be fine shaving the calipers down just a little
