    Hey folks, I just got a 2003 Tacoma with 15" wheels. I would like to go with some 16" wheels just for looks and I'll need tires soon anyway. The current stock 15" wheels have five lug nuts. It looks like the Tacoma 16" wheels have six lug nuts.

    What kind of adapter do I need to put on the bigger wheels? I'm not going to go real big on the tires,maybe a 225/70/16.

    Thanks

    You don't need adapters to put on bigger wheels, you just need to choose a wheel that has the same bolt pattern as your truck.
