Time for a brake upgrade, just a few questions
The front brakes on my 2002 Tacoma are just about done and i'd like to upgrade the brakes while i'm at it.
My 2 options are the 199mm Tundra brake upgrade and the 231mm Tundra brake upgrade.
Yes I have read multiple DIY's on both.
My question is, will my 16x7? TRD wheels fit over the calipers?
I cannot find a solid answer on this. Some say yes other say it's not even close...
Here are the wheels in question.

I don't think anyone would know for sure unless they have done the upgrade with those specific wheels. I've seen the pics and some of the wheels are so close it's crazy.
(My Opinion) I would buy just one caliper. Pull the wheel, unbolt the existing caliper, pull the rotor, mount the new caliper, mount the wheel. If it doesn't fit, return the caliper. If you just unbolt the existing caliper (and don't disconnect the lines) you can just put it all back together the way it was.
