Will these TRD caps fit!?

[nmertz1]

Stumbled upon these on Amazon, I ordered 1 for my 2014 TEP, even tho it said they wouldn't fit. Has anyone installed these before and do you know if they will fit on the stock TEP wheels?

I don't suppose you Googled that part number, eh?

I clearly saw the big red letters... But I did Google it, and Amazon has a blanket generic wheel for all 4runners, so I'm not sure if it would still fit. That's why I asked.

I have a set of those that I put on my Tacoma. I have tried, and they do not fit the 4Runner trail wheels. Amazon wins this round.

Thank you! I have seen a few people make them work with trimming on other models. Thanks for the info

If you had done as I suggested, you'd have found these are for a 16" wheel. Evidently, it's so much easier to post up a thread than to find out for yourself.
Took all of 20 seconds.

What's funny is, he spent way more time posting this thread with screen cap and everything and waiting for an answer then if he'd just looked it up himself.

And now it's probably too late to cancel his Amazon order and he'll have to return them.

Threads like this remind me of when my kids were young. When helping them with homework, they were annoyed that I would only help guide them along vs solving a problem for them. Both sons are now successful businessmen, partly I hope because I made them use their brains.

I don't think this was an unreasonable thread, personally. The rim diameter seems like it'd be irrelevant to how the center cap area is designed. As the OP mentioned, these caps (FJ TRD caps) are often used (and trimmed) on other rims because they look neat - though the example I'm aware of is also a 16" rim. Almost no way to tell if they fit without trying, though.

Stop being logical. It's easier to waste time telling a guy he should've googled and that his time would've been better spent googling.

for what it's worth, i also don't know what a 16" rim has to do with anything, but i'm now going to go google and pull up a 5yr old thread that will surely explain it.

Glad everyone is so friendly on here! Quick to jump to conclusions based on assumptions.

I did in fact research it and look around before I posted the question. Amazon uses the SR5 wheels for there fitment guide. So I wasn't sure. I never saw anyone use these, but I did see people mod them using a Dremel.

I just modified the caps to fit. For whatever reason this forum won’t let me post a new thread explaining how.
