    black rims no matter what size would look good. just make sure ur getting the same backspacing as the stock rims and those sizes from earlier will be good to go

    I just installed a set of rims and mud tires. The rims are 16x8 with a 5.5 bs (I believe) and the tires are 265/75R16 and they to rub lots. I dont think its possible to have a larger tire without some cutting or a lift kit.

    I have 20" wheels on my stock 2005 Tacoma. With BF Goodrich G-Force low profile tires. I think the size is 265/50/20
