Quick question about rim fitment - UPDATE with pics

Just curious if these fj rims are the same offset/backspacing as our stock first gen rims. I "think" they are the same offset as our stockers at +15mm. I have 265/70/16 on general grabbers and sometimes I rub when backing out of my driveway (small decline). Just want to make sure that they are exactly like our first gen rims and not pulled in more like the 2nd gens... (which would lead to even more rubbing) Not sure of backspacing either. Any help would be much appreciated.

thanks

 

look at the stickies, there is a thread that tells you all about what size the rims are and what rims will fit your truck

 

I read the sticky, but im not sure of the stats of the rim in question. Figured maybe someone knew or has used them.

 

Don't worry so much about the offset, look at the back spacing anything more than the stock 4.5 backspacing will create problems with the UCA.

 

I can't find any info on these rims is the reason im askin if anyone else has any info. I THINK the offset is +15mm and that they are 16x7, but wanna be sure before i buy them.

 

I have seen them on a few gen1 tacomas out in the seattle area. I have the 17 fjs on mine no problem. see pic

thanks, i know they will fit, but just want to make sure the offset and backspacing is the same. I cant afford to have the +30mm like the 2nd gen rims cause my tires will rub...

Maybe someone in the fj section on here will know the true specs.

looks like 15mm or 4.84". so they would fit "in" a little compared to stock.

I just bought some 2nd gen rims without doing this research and i dont like the way they sit so i'm looking for some new options.

Thanks alot for the info. Aren't our first gen wheels 16x7 with +15mm offset too? IF thats the case, wouldn't they be the same backspacing also?

OK, after a little research i found out these rims are 16x7 and +15mm offset

And after using this calculator here:
https://www.customwheeloffset.com/tire-wheel-backspacing-offset-calculators

The rims have a 4.84 in backspace.... Isnt that what our stock backspacing is because we have 16x7 with 15mm offset?

 

you could be right. The widths might be a little off.

I did put on the 2nd gen tacoma rims and they definitely sit in a little and rub when turning full. however those FJ rims i'm sure are different.

Good luck

 

thanks man, im pretty sure the fj's and ours are the same too. The rims are stamped "J 16x7 j 15". Im thinking that means they are definitely +15offset too. These probably are exactly like our stockers. I ended up buying them so we'll see. I wish more people on here had them on to be sure. If that page with the offset/backspace calculator is correct, these will be exactly like ours.

 

if it's 16x7 then it would most likely be 4.5"

7.5 wide would get you the 4.85" (the 17" wheels are 7.5 wide)

 

I have the same wheels on my '02 and have no problems with it. Running 265/75/16 BFG KO2 @ stock height... not sure the back spacing and stuff hope this helps...

 

They fit, but the clearance is close, small amount of rubbing full lock...it is best to run Bora .75" hubcentric spacers to get the backspace back to around 4.5 or so and get rid of the minor rubbing...

I am running a set and Bora's is how I know...

 

Update... just put them on yesterday. Rims are perfect and the sizing (backspacing/offset) is the exact same as the stock rims.

 

Looks good, I am a fan of those wheels
