    Thanks! I'm still loving it.

    Haven't actually fixed the rubbing 100% yet. Lifted it 1 inch on fox coilovers and lost some rubbing. Today I heat gunned a couple spots on the inside of the fender and got rid of more rubbing. Next plan is to get alignment with more positive caster. Seems I'm still bumping Cab mount and pinch welds when turning into driveways. I'm also trying to avoid cutting. Might hammer pinch welds next. I heard that was a thing.

    But I don't recommend this setup if youre not ready to lift or cut. It was rubbing a lot before lift, and I was always mentally prepped for possibly cutting.

    Welcome to TacomaWorld.

    With the incorrect offset you likely will. Thankfully the manufacturer offers it not only in multiple sizes, but in different offsets as well.

    Thanks for the welcome and quick response. On methods website they only show 0/4.75 so if anyone has these in 17’s on a tacoma it should be that size unless they offer sizes not shown? Which I would think is unlikely

    To add to the 701s out there just in case anyone else is looking. I just had a set of 265/75r16 BFG KO2s installed on my 2020 Off Road Cement Grey Tacoma with the 16 inch Method 701. 16x8 with 0mm offset in Matte Black. Stock suspension. As you can tell, the little man loves it!

    Cement grey. Yep! Thanks!

    Agreed! Although I wish Method’s “Bronze” was actually more bronze and less gold. I love the look of true bronze on the grey and blue Tacos.

    Love it, but I’ve only had it for less than a week. Lol. I’ve ran the KO2s before and for my intended use they work great.
