Got mine at ToyotaParts4Less - GENUINE TOYOTA & SCION DISCOUNTED OEM PARTS & ACCESSORIES
Camelback Toyota had a similar price but they were not in stock like they were at the above link.

When I asked again if a 7" wide rim was ever allowed on a 275/55R20, Continental responded that the Tire and Rim Association never approved this for the rim and suggested that it was always a typo. See below:

Dear Daniel,
[Web Inquiry: 131110-000007]
Yes, it is a typo. These are standards based on the Tire and Rim Association and will be the same for all manufacturers.
Sincerely,

Hi Renae,
Thanks for your quick reply. So it seems that both the LX and the LX20 are NOT approved for a 7"wide rim? So, technically the LX20 spec sheet is correct on your website, but the error is on the LX spec sheet.
Thanks,
Dan
I think the 7" vs 7.5" rim width on 5th Gen Limited wheels has been put to bed, but out of curiosity, I will be measuring my rims when I get around to putting new tread on them! To be fair, the 2014's did change the look of the Limited wheels, doubt it, buy maybe there is an chance they changed the width also?
Toyo Open Country HT
Just installed Toyo Open Country HT 255/55/20. They will fit a 20x17" rim. They are very close to the stock tire size. 1/4" less side wall, so 1/2" shorter total and about 1/2" wider. Will see how they hold up. 60,000 tire warranty. Have to be better then the stock tires!
Also, Nitto makes a 255/55/20 that will fit a 20"X7" rim.

Somewhere on the site there is a measurement and they are only 7". I picked up a set of SR5 wheels and have been more then happy with the ride and selection of tires. I sold my limited rims for more then the SR5 rims cost so it was a net gain for me and I don't even have to think twice about this debate.
Discount did put the p-metric on my truck by accident the first go round and they felt soft but the C load was stiffer and has been outstanding for me, in snow, light off-road, and I haven't had any more body roll on the highways. Best of all worlds if you ask me...

Hey TTA got pics you can share. I can't believe you found a tire other than OEM that will fit the 7" rim width.

Where did you find these new for $160/wheel? Great deal.

They also published that on the 2012 information guide and that has proved to be false.

I sold my 2014 limited edition wheels. Once I had the off you can see the 20x7 marking. Thought they looked great but the trail edition wheels with AT tires fit my needs better.
I solved my 20" limited tire selection problem last night. $300 for a set of 5 FJ wheels off Craigslist.
The seller said the wheels might still have TPMS sensors, but he did not know for sure. I assume they do not and would have bought them at that price either way. Is there any way to tell if they have sensors short of removing the tire? They have aftermarket valve caps.

How much were you able to sell the limited rims for? I ordered a set of new 20x9 rims to go with 27/55/20 Michelin LTX MS2's...
TPMS will generally go into a type of sleep mode after a period of sitting. I'm not sure what causes the tire to wake exactly (rotational movement? any movement/vibration?). Obviously for the tire shop to read the signal, the sensor will need to be functioning (sufficient battery, etc.) as well as awake (not in sleep mode).
Most tire shops will have a tool that can read the sensor ID through the sidewall (wirelessly). I assume they'll charge you, but it should be a small amount since it is literally a 5 minute job (assuming they're not sleeping).

Around $1500, price really depends on the market you are selling them in though.
Thanks. I just had new tires put on the rims. There weren't any TPMS sensors. NTB didn't have any problem pulling the sensors from my 20" rims and putting them in the 17" rims. My LE looks great wearing the FJ rims with Michelin LTX AT2 tires.
