    So, best educated guess........2015 Tacoma A/C 4x4

    17x8.5 wheels, 0mm off set, 5" BS.

    Tires 285/ 70/ 17

    3" suspension lift. stock UCA's (will get new if I have to)

    Good Combo?

    Anything to look out for with that combo?

    Sorry, new to Tacoma's and wheels.

    Got the Level 8 Wheels mounted up last week. Much better than what I had. And with the correct offset the tires are definitely out a little further. But not enough to affect anything. The big win is I have lots of room between the tire and my UCA.Wheel_sideview.jpg Wheel_sideview_02.jpg

    Thanks to you it did work out. I was ready to buy wheels that needed spacers. But you gave me a heads up on that.

    Here is a link for stock wheel sizes and offset Here is a chart to determine Backspacing
    IMG_1321.GIF
    4.5 backspacing worked for me L/R UCAs 3"lift
    BUT I'm running 265/70/17
    285's should fit but you may have to trim..


    You should be fine I was running 265/70/17 on stock suspension
    I had a little rub on mud flaps

    :thumbsup::thumbsup:
    Thanks , I think I finally figured out what will work .Going with a American Racing Wheel "BAJA" ,17x8 with 0 offset . Falken Wildpeaks A/T3W in LT 265/70 17. . This will push out 1.3" further from the suspension and over an inch of "poke" . The LT is just under 32" and 10.7" wide . I should be safe . Thanks again

    Welcome that should work!!
    That's basically what I'm running now until I get my sr8s on :D
    A little wider wheel but about the same backspace. Same tire size

    Ok so I just installed 20x9 0 offset with 5" bs with toyo mt 33-12.50 tires

    My truck is an 08 double cab 4x4 with a 6" procomp lift

    And the knobs of the tires are just grazing the bolts at the end of the sway bar… Is this normal and did I screw up and get the wrong wheels?
    Would a small space or help?

    Thanks in advance

    Does anyone know if a 17x9 with 4.25 back spacing -12 degree offset would work on an 08 with 265/70/17.
    No lift.
    I've placed order for the wheels and now I'm freaking out about if they'll fit ornot.
    Thanks.

    Is a -20 offset too much on stock height?

    wow, i'll be on a 2.75 in front lift 2.5 in the rear, do you think that extra height would make things not as tight? How do the rims sit in the wheel well, do they stick out much further than the stock setup?
