Is beating that pinch weld in and doing some trimming absolutely necessary? I plan on running an 18x8 with a 275/70r18 on a tundra/lc lift. Should I expect any problems with that setup?

I'm going to piggyback of this thread since it deals with different rims and tire sizes.
I have an 01 with 265/70/16 and was thinking of other wheels/tires.
Some of the newer options are 265/70/17. By looking at the tire websites, i should be off by 3%. The tirerack site says to not go above 2-3% so you don't risk brake failure.
What do i really need to worry about if i go to a 17?

I'm running those right now, but I have a 3" lift. I put them on before i did the lift, in prep for the TBU and didn't have any issues, but i wasn't going offroad with them.
I paid $1000 CAD brand spankin new, tires still had nipples, so if your talking $1200 USD,I would say that's a little on the expensive side. Lots of guys swapping on new wheel and tire combos and trying to recoup some of the cost, just keep an eye out.

Very few people here run 18's. Do a google thread search & see what others have done.

Those tires will rub with your stock springs. If you upgrade to the Tall springs from a 99 they will fit.

I have the tundra/lc lift with 285/75/16 and only rub when full turn and flexed out. I'm on second perch up front. The tire is considered a 33. I also have spidertrax 1.25" spacer

Sweet, thanks for the heads up. It seems like i need to stick with the 16" stock or go with the 275/60/17 if i am able to find a good 17" wheel.

If you still have the original shocks & springs you should change them out. You will love the new ride.

I had changed them all with replacement height springs and shocks/struts.

agreed, as much as i desperately want these wheels, I couldnt pay more than $400 MAX for just the wheels. most people who buy wheels don't even want the tires on them no matter the condition so it's hard to even sell above the price of what the wheel is worth. For the price he's asking, you can pick up these wheels from someone else plus put on your on tires of choice

16" to 17" Rims
Can I put 17" wheels/tires from a 2005 4runner onto my 1999 4 Runner Limited that came with 16" wheels without doing anything beyond putting them on? Sorry but all these tire, lift and cutting comments has me confused.

I'm assuming the new tires are 265/70R17's? If that's the case then you may have some minor rubbing when turning. I have 265/70R17 tires on 5th gen SR5 4Runner rims and I rub slightly when turned and flexed a little.

Was looking at putting on the factory 17's from a 2016 Sr5 4Runner. I love this wheel! But the guy selling, his center caps, all 4 are dented... Are these caps expensive?
