    Looks great.

    I have winter steel wheels on my 2018 Sport. I think they're a set of the spare rims and look very similar to yours. Just wondering if those center caps would fit?

    Thanks.

    Thanks!

    I believe the center caps I went with specifically clip into the OEM 17" FJ wheel (or same style) from the front. See some reference pics below for how they clip in. If your steelies have the notches in the center opening, I can't see why they wouldn't fit. If you have the 16" Tacoma spare wheels (with the oval hole), I haven't seen anyone running these center caps with those.

    Gotcha. Thanks. My rims have a different center. Round without the indents. Sucks that Toyota doesn't have a center fthat fits spare steel wheels that a lot of us use for winter rims.

    I bought them from this seller directly, they had center caps for an extra $7.50 + free shipping. 4 new rims with caps to my door for like $320. Will post pics once I get tires and get them mounted.

    Is there anything special with these I need to consider regarding lug nuts on these steelies? Any standard Tacoma "acorn style" will work? Or not?
    like these?

    I went with spline drive style acorn nuts to avoid any clearance issues with my FJ center caps. I thought that a standard hex acorn nut may interfere when you're trying to loosen/tighten them with a socket (when you have the center caps on).

    The first link you posted (20 pack) is the right size and style, should work as long as you don't have any clearance issues. The second link you posted (4 pack) is the right size but the wrong style, you need the matching acorn style.

    One more question, why they come in 20 packs? Don't I need 24 for a tacoma? :)

    I think most hubs intended for use with steel wheels are 5 lugs (like for trailers or base model trucks), hence the 20 pack for 4 wheels. I bought a 20 pack and a 4 pack.

    These are what I used assuming you just want standard hex lug nuts.

    no issues with the FJ center caps on mine.

    Just put on a set of 16" steelies. They're the spare rims with the much coveted double oval. Why settle for one oval when you can have two? As an oval-shaped small rock collector these are great when using as a filter to separate out oval stones and rocks I find along the trail. Bought them in black and had them powder coated an off white. For those wondering, the TPMS sensors are Denso 550-0103 and they worked perfectly. I went from the factory alloy rims and original 265/65/17 GrandTrek AT20's to 245/75/16 Micheline LTX M/S's. One thing I learned is that the powder coating process added mass to the wheels' axle hole making them tough to get on. Was like trying to get a small wedding ring on the finger of a three hundred pound woman. I took them to a Road Force Wheel balancing shop and them cats said they were well balanced to begin with. Very little weight was needed.

    It may just be phantom pain, but I seem to be able to notice the added weight while driving. Little bit sluggish. Oh well, form over function!

    Been looking for a new 17" steel spare wheel for a 2019 Tacoma. When calling around for possible Toyota wheels, I get the following two part numbers: 4261135430 (specifically for a 4 Runner) and 42601AD050 (for the Tacoma). Could anyone explain the difference between the two wheels?

    Thanks for any input.
