    Hello all, quick couple of questions

    I'm in need of new tires for my 2014 Tacoma TRD Sport. I'm also not in love with the rims on there, but typically prefer OEM parts, so I found some 2020 TRD Off-Road wheels on craigslist. Figure I could get some nicer looking wheels on there with new tires, and sell off my set. I'm just curious if there is anything I'm missing that will prevent them from fitting my truck? I know there are wheel offsets that I have no idea about, so wanted to check to be sure.

    According to this, the end diameter is the same, even though I'm dropping from 17" to 16" rims.

    Also, are the stock tires any good? They are the Goodyear Wrangler All-Terrain Adventure tires with Kevlar. I'm not really big into offroading, if I'm going off road, it's to get to somewhere I can ride my mountain bike, and it wouldn't be extreme enough to need anything too serious. I live in Colorado, so I'm mostly concerned with performance in snow.

    Thanks in advance!

    32,000 miles on Kevlar stock tires, will need to replace at around 35K this fall. Have not gone offload with truck, however the roads in Mass.are so bad with potholes and lousy maintenance, tires are good. Have taken my share of holes and bouncing off sidewalks enough to know that they hold up with no sidewall or even rim damage. Probably worth the extra costs. They don't shine as well with cleaning I think its the composite material. The dealer just called me and said I have 5/32 left on tires and they are only half worn. Did not seem that they had a lot of thread when new and they look a little tired (get it) to me. Anybody with recommendations appreciated!
