Little Advice please.

I'm thinking about getting these wheels since they are new and different. I'm getting a bit tired of seeing the same ole black wheels on vehicles. I do not know much of anything about offset. I have 16" wheels now and I want to keep my tires so I'll stick with the 16" wheel. Basically my question is will these fit??? Or do I need spacers or different offset. I entered my vehicle on this site but I trust you all much more.

I am not seeing the offset but it looks like you should be good to go. The bolt pattern is good so you should be able to throw your tires on them and mount them right up.

EDIT: You will rub the fender liners if you upsize tires. But if not you should be ok. If you do rub, it is not a big deal to move the fender liner back.

The vendor you want to buy the wheels from says they fit. If they don't they are responsible for making it right with you, the customer.

If they are selling you product based on a claim either the claim is good or not. Why ask here? No one on this board is going to give you money if the advice they give you is wrong.

Why not ask here? Forums such as this one have saved me hundreds of dollars in the past. I value all the info you all can help out with. I also like to do all the research I can. It doesnt matter if a website says it's all good. Someone might have had a bad experience and would be willing to share.

I know it seems cheaper to buy wheels and tires on line, but after shipping, mounting, stems, balancing and alignment, you are back up to the local prices. I bought locally because they throw in all the extra stuff since you bought from them and it also allowed me to test fit everything before I forked over my hard earned $. If they dont work you can say "sorry bud try again, Ill bring my truck back when my new correct sized wheels and tires are here"

There are alot of tire and wheel sizes , offsets, and tire size varies by brand and type. I would go to a reputable tire shop and let them help you, when I upgraded I told them what I needed, I wanted the tires to stick out 1/2 more than they were and didnt mind trimming plastic. Everything just cleared the upper control arm and looks good. I did have to trim the fender liners and remove the front mudflaps though.

Thanks for the advice Absolute. I agree 100% only problem is I dont trust the shops around here...usually( I live in a small town where everything is way overpriced and people are dishonest). I did talk to someone last night and I might have a lead on a guy in town that works at the local conoco. He orders wheels all the time and I hear he is really good at all he does. I'm gonna go talk to him probably Monday.

Have the company provide you with more detailed specifications for the wheel. Their website does not show what the offset is for that particular wheel (or at least I missed it) and so quite possibly it will not properly fit on your vehicle without spacers. Factory Toyota wheels for pretty much every Toyota truck and SUV have been 7.5" wide (even TRD) and putting a 9" wheel with the same offset as the 7.5" will not work.

Although the offset isn't provided, it says the wheels will stick out. I would venture to say it has a negative offset. My wheels have an offset of 0 and they are just past flush with the fender.
