Tacoma wheels and 5th gen brakes

So I picked up a set of tacoma wheels yesterday for my 04 sport. Popped the on quick and everything was good until i took to for a ride. Left front caliper was digging into the rim.

Took a grinder to it and all is well but I remembered I have a 5th ben upgrade sitting in my garage.. Anyone have any experience with 5th ben brakes and tacoma wheels? same issue i take it. Maybe its best to pick up a 4runner set of wheels and sell the tacoma to save the trouble of having to mess with the caliper.

13WG castings for smaller rotors

I just re did my front brakes. Rebuilt calipers, couple new pistons, new pads and rotors. I did an online order from my local dealer and used my VIN to select the parts. Both size rotor came up as "fitting," however the descriptions did not indicate the rotor diameters. I only noticed it when I was putting one on and it was rubbing on the dust plate. I was like, "WTH?!" then set them side by side and saw the difference. I needed the smaller of the 2 rotors, even though my 08 SR5 has 17" wheels (stock style but replaced after by the original owner, or some weird trim package combo, who knows). It occurred to me that my calipers wouldn't have fit. My calipers are 13WG. So all this said means: triple check all your stuff.
