they should fit the brake calipers arent the larger ones on the diesel but someone that i work with says they come awfully close.

You may get a rock stuck between the caliper and rim and could do some damage but bolt one on and see how you go.

A bees pecker I can handle.

Just want to make sure to keep it reasonably legal.

Just the sidewalls of mine stuck out with a 17mm off set. Which I thinks is the same as Toyota's off set.

Offsets

Post by ROCKRASH »

Bogged, can't help much but can tell you that 16x8 51 series pro comp rockcrawler steels are series three GU offset + 17mm. I run 5 inches of lift in a series three with 285/75. Tyres still belt rear inner guards.

i ordered the toyota rims so 20mm offset would be them , and they rub a little less with 35's and 3" lift fully tucked than what my 285/75/16 on stock gu rims do , so i reakon the yota offset all the way , if i was running 33"s on the toy rims i doubt they would touch at all by far .

cheers Jai
