    What is your current set-up, up front? 3rd gen billies....what notch on the drivers side and what notch on the passenger side? It looks great!

    Thank you for the compliment. For the front, I'm running Bilstein 5100 (I believe set at the 2nd perch on both sides), OME 887, Headstrong 1/4 inch spacer (driver side - to correct the lean), Light Racing UCA's, and a Maxtrac 4wd diff drop kit.

    I'm about to pull the trigger on some 16X8 MK6's for my white 14.

    What offset should I be going for? I'll be running a 285/75/16.

    Can't seem to find any definite answers @Discount Tire Direct

    I have the same wheel with the -10 offset. I wish I had the 0 offset, they stick out a little more than I like.

    Decided to drop the trd caps. I fell in love with the "8" caps that come with the wheels. My wheels came with some cosmetic issues but after speaking to a cool sales rep we were able to come to an agreement. IMG_2549.PNG.jpgIMG_2552.jpgIMG_2553.jpgIMG_2554.jpg

    Hey guys! New to the forum and new owner of a gen 3 tacoma 4x4. Spent some time doing research on everything I needed thanks to this thread. I was able to get these wheels during the Labor Day sale for $100 off plus $60 for using their store credit card. Pretty sweet deal! Alright so here are the specs:

    Level 8 mk6 "17 +0 offset
    Bf Goodrich ko2 265/70/17 C load
    Stock suspension

    I have the billstein 5100 all around and 1" rear block, but haven't had the time to install them yet. Does not rub at all with the stock suspension set up. I can confirm that you'll need different lug nuts for these wheels. From reading some responses on this thread, it looks like some guys were able to get the lug nuts from discount tire direct. Not sure if they had to purchase them or it was free? Either way, I wasn't aware about this until after I ordered my wheels so I just purchased a set of 20 lugs and a set of 4 wheel locks from Amazon for about $50 total. Here are the links to the ones I bought

    Gorilla lug nuts:
    $28 Gorilla Automotive 21133ET Extended Thread Small Diameter Lug Nut – 12-Millimeter by 1.5 Thread Size – Pack of 20
    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001O0AO0Q/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_awdb_rx1SzbK7DA9KM

    Gorilla wheel locks: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00280CQES/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_awdo_gz1SzbZHGBKAR

    I'm glad to see you took advantage of the Labor Day Deals, Se7enfiddy - your truck looks great!

    With regard to lug hardware, and as you found, aftermarket conical seat lug hardware is needed. DTD does not include the lug hardware with the wheels, but kits are available starting at $45.00
