My buddy just bought a 2008 Tacoma and already has the wheels/tires for sale. It's an 08 TRD/4x4. I know the bolt pattern is the same but is there an offset difference between the two?

Does anyone have any pics of a 4Runner w/ Tacoma wheels tires?

 

Yes, the Tacoma wheels have a larger backspacing. Nothing dramatic, but you will still notice the wheels to look pushed in.

trd_runnin has some pics of his on Tacoma wheels.

 

I tried to find some posts/pics for that user but couldn't find any.

 

i have some '06 tacoma wheels on my 4runner, don't know if we're talking about the same style though. i think VegasKurt has these as well, maybe others too.

 

he's over on t4r.org

 

These are from a 06 Tacoma Sport 4X4. The backspacing was a little different from the original wheels but not really noticeable. Here are some pics. If you want another picture to focus on the backspacing let me know.

 

Thanks for the pics everyone. I can get them with 120 miles on them for $500 that includes the new BF Goodrich tires. Good deal for 4 wheels/tires?

 

Totally off the subject, but I like what you did with your rear bumper!

 

rearview - Just remember that those 4Runners above do not have fender flares--you've got them. Hence, the wheels will look like it's pushed in further into the body. I don't think it will look bad, but personally, I would not do it.

Also, for $500, that's not a great deal. Plenty of FJC, Tundra, Sequioa rims + tires I see are in the $400 - $600 range. I know places like Discount or Les Schwab will only give them about $300 for the wheels & tires when trading in for new rims.

 

07 TRD sport wheels from a Tacoma. It does looked more pushed in with these wheels, but I like it. Also the Limited flares wont help the pushed in look.

 

I'll play

Tacoma TRD wheels on my 98 Limited:


After spidertrax 1.25" wheel spacers:


The last picture isn't the greatest but I think it shows that the spacers helped. I hated the offset before the spacers, but I love the spacers and the wheels now.

 

I apologize if you go over this info again, but I was unable to locate it. I am planning on getting the same Sport TRD Wheels and BFG Tires you have on your Truck. I am getting the 2" Control Arm Spacers and need to have 4.5 backspacing on the wheels to insure I don’t get any rub against the control arm.

This is the link to my plans:

I am planning on getting FJ Rear Coils for the rear.

Please let me know what size lift you have on your truck and also what tire size you are running. If you know off hand the backspacing on the wheels, please let me know. Thanks! I highly appreciate it!

 

Well, I got my Tacoma Wheels for my 1993 4Runner and here it is! I am really excited about getting such a good deal on wheels and tires! Only problem is that the front caps dont fit! If anyone has a solution, please let me know!

Why won't the center caps fit over the hub on the 2g 4Runner?

 

The center caps hit the cone nuts and center hub cover. I guess the ADD Hubs (Automatic Disconnecting Differntial) on the 89 -95 is different from the 96 and newer models. If you know any different, please let me know! I'll give it another go!

Here are the end results:

After:

 

I was just wondering if the center cap can be modified to accomodate the ADD (attention deficit disorder? haha) but looking at it closer, it doesn't appear that even IF the center cab can be modified, the clearance is so tight that it wouldn't attach anywho. I'd like to go to town with a dremel and a good imagination but to find a volunteer may be difficult. "Hey, can I cut your center caps up and well, if I mess up, too damn bad."

 

LOL! People get a kick out of hearing my truck has ADD! Especially when the tires didnt match! That explained that!

I would volunteer my front caps, but I'm a pack rat and will hold on to them for a while. Hey, get some off of ebay and go to town with a dremel. You will be the first Yotatech to accomplish this fete!

After reading this article:

The hub problem will not be a problem for long. I plan on tackling the ADD problem by replacing the hubs.

The cheapiest, but not the prettiest option is to get some hub covers from Pep Boys for 15 bucks.

 

thats not a great deal, they sell 24/7 on craigslist for about that. from my experience, the original off road tires from toyota only last about 15k-25k.
