    Trail wheels "better" than TRD Pro wheels?

    Wheel selection to avoid rubbing on 275s GLANDNUT, I am thinking of going to 275/70 tires on my 2019 SR5, stock wheels, which are 17x7, 15 mm offset. I've read a lot about rubbing issues, but not sure what the final answer is on how to avoid. When you quoted your friend about wheels and...

    Spacer lift vs. Full lift kit

    DECIPHER, after reading a LOT of threads, a setup like yours is probably what I want. Due to garage height, I'm not sure if I can do 2.5 or 1.75 on the 5100s up front. Either way I might want to raise the rear a bit. There seem to be a few options for rear spacers. Toytech has a 1.5" poly...

    Confused oem trd off road vs pro wheels spec

    The problem with the "minimize rubbing" rationale for narrower TRD wheel is this: It's the tires that rub, not the wheels. If there were a 7.5 wheel with the same offset as the 7.0 TRD wheel, a tire on either wheel would occupy the wheel well in exactly the same position. OK, maybe the...

    What to expect from spacer lift ( Daystar)

    WHIPPERSNAPPER02, thanks for the tip, I've kind of gathered that there is a risk like you describe with spacers, which is real for some people, but more theoretical for my use case. In the event that I do decide to use spacers, what are the different ways to space in the rear? I don't know...

    SR5 vs TRD Pro Rim Specs

    HWNRUNNER, thanks, very helpful. I might also go 275. When you say grind off some plastic, do you mean plastic from the same liner that was pushed forward, or plastic from fender/flap?

    TRD Pro Wheels on Stock Tires

    Anomalous, like your rig. Mine might end up just like it. Two questions: 1) How do you like the front leveled at 0.85"? I'm going to put on 5100s, but thinking of going a bit higher, plus rear 5100s with a little spacer. Did you consider doing anything in the rear? 2) I can't decided...

    SR5 vs TRD Pro Rim Specs

    Offset does more than push the tire out. I am considering swapping 2019 stock SR5 wheels for the TRDs. Because the offset is different, it's not a perfectly equal swap. The lesser offset on the TRDs does "push" the wheel further outward from the wheel well by a little less than half an inch...

    Swapping SR5 stock tires to TRD rims, silly question

    Possible tire rub with swap I am also considering swapping from stock SR5 whees to the TRDs. Both are 7" wide, but the offest is different (more negative on the TRDs). It seems that many people have made the swap without problems. At least one owner apparently got rubbing--perhaps the tire...

    What to expect from spacer lift ( Daystar)

    Best rear spacer to pair with Bilsteins For mild/moderate offroad capability, I'm planning on putting 5100s in front and back, with ~3" lift or a little less. To get the level I want, I might need to add some spacing in the rear. I don't know how the various components interact. What...

    Yakima Vertical Mighty Mounts- Which ones?

    I have some oval vertical mounts from a prior car. They are stamped "10V". They would work on my 2019 4R OEM crossbars if they were just a hair wider; the inner width of the oval is 2.5". I can get the oval to wrap around the crossbar, but because it is just BARELY too small, the square...

    Changing Tire Size or Wheels? Read this first!

    Great primer and good read for new 4R owner, thanks. When I read various owners' anecdotes, I have to agree with the comment that every setup might have subtle differences like a fingerprint. Which seems weird given how much is known about these very popular products, but there it is. One...

    Question | Bilstein 5100's for leveling

    Are you happy with setup? It's been a couple years since this thread has had posts. I am considering doing what others have done, namely 5100s front and back. My needs are modest general purpose, including some deep snow, winter graded roads, some shallow mud and water. Not technical rock...
