@@LevelUpMechanics im in houston too?!!!! what a coincidence, anyway quick question i have a 23' Tacoma TRD Sport and was gonna get the TRD rims and new tires, my question is would the 265/70/R17 rub against anything? i havent gotten it lifted (not from factory or after) also what rated tire would be good (im going for these AT tires or Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

@gadielescalante8378 as far as the tires are concerned (when paired with the black TRD rims), I did not have any rubbing issues. I've driven this wheel & tire combo on both stock suspension AND lifted suspension setups with zero issues. The only exception is that if you still have the front bumper lower valance installed, the tires might be able to touch it when turning. As long as your alignment is within factory specifications (specifically your front caster settings), you should be good to go 😁👍.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

@gadielescalante8378 as far as tire ratings are concerned, I have the 265/70/R17 115T (speed rating) SL (load / sidewall ply rating) currently installed. The "SL" version will give you an all-terrain tire that will perform & feel like the factory tires. An "E" rated version of this tire will give you stronger sidewalls, which is a lot better for off-roading... but they will be heavier, they will be harder to balance, and they will give you a "harsher" ride & handling experience when driving on paved roads. I hope this info helps! 😁 👍

That is amazing! I appreciate your support! I'm still running this setup on my Tacoma and I absolutely 💯 love it! The offset difference with these 4Runner TRD PRO wheels gives you a slightly wider stance without looking like they stick too far out. And since they will have an OEM fit to the Tacoma, you won't have to worry about any aftermarket fitment issues. Plus, as long as your Tacoma has a good alignment, you shouldn't experience any rubbing against the fender liners in the front. Thanks again for your support!

[@zaccsquatch]

[@LevelUpMechanics]

[@infinion3]

thanks, i feel like a fool, i ordered these wheels, supposed to get them next week. i didnt know there is a slight poke out on them. i thought they where factory offset like the stock 16" wheels. thought i did my homework, i dont like the flush look, im a firm believer in like a fwd front geometry. anytime u poke a wheel out, your giving the earth leverage against your truck. the pivot of the wheel should always be the top center. thanks for this vid tho

[@LevelUpMechanics]

So, let me give you some peace of mind (just in case you decide to keep them). The wheel offset difference between the OEM TRD-Offroad wheels and these 4Runner TRD Pro wheels is about 3/4" (basically the width of your thumb 👍). The difference is minimal and can actually improve stability when cornering. As far as the "pivot of the wheel" is concerned, that is related more to your alignment specs. I've used these wheels with both stock suspension and my eibach lifted suspension setup, and in both scenarios, these wheels are terrific. As long as your alignment is within factory specifications, you will have no rubbing issues or abnormal tire wear (I would highly recommend an alignment anytime you put on new wheels & tires so that you can make sure the tires will wear evenly and will last as long as possible). As an ASE Certified Master Automotive Technician, I tend to do a lot of research when I make upgrades to my Tacoma. I wanted these wheels because they give an OEM+ feel to the ride & handling characteristics of the Tacoma, they do not add any unnecessary stress to the wheel bearings / suspension components, and they look amazing on the 3rd Gen. I could go into more details, but in the end, if it were me, I really wouldn't worry too much about a 0.75" offset difference. The more important spec will be your tire size. I currently have Falken Wildpeak 265/70/R17's (barely over-sized), and they've been holding up well over the past 2+ years. You can always run with the stock size too (265/65/R17). I hope this info helps! 😁 At the end of the day, you should always just do what makes you feel comfortable 👍. I just wanted to share my knowledge & experience in case you may have needed some reassurance about your purchase.

I have a 2021 TRD 4x4 Tacoma Sport. I wanted to replace my 17" stock wheels with the 4 runner Pro 17" Bronze wheels. HOWEVER! I was informed by Toyota that even with the proper torque "the lug nuts do not hold properly" and they recommend I not make that substitution.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

So the lug nuts that I use for my wheel setup are the Toyota OEM Black lug nuts - PT076-60200-02 - which are compatible for both the Tacoma and the 4Runner. They are the same lug nuts as OEM ones, just in a black finish. The Tacoma & 4Runner both have the exact same hub bores, wheel studs, bolt patterns, etc. The ONLY reason Toyota does not recommend these wheels on a Tacoma is because they have not tested these wheels for safety on the Tacoma specifically (as these wheels were originally designed only for the 4Runner). So if you think about it, any aftermarket wheel would be discouraged by Toyota. In the end, these wheels fit perfectly on my Tacoma and I have no issues in regards to OEM fitment. If I were in your shoes, I would get the bronze wheels and never look back 🤣.

[@vario2664]

@@LevelUpMechanics Actually, Toyota has multiple documented reports of the OEM lug nuts not holding the wheel adequately. Toyota of Hawaii is on record stating that. I'm thinking that the distinction between the 4 Runner wheel hub and that of the Tacoma is to account for this problem. What's also interesting is that there is an off road performance center here that has warned consumers on their site of the possible problematic fitment of wheels other than stock wheels on certain Tacomas.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

Would you happen to have the link for the off-road performance shop? I'm very interested to see what exactly the discrepancy is... All I can find, so far, on Google are a few instances where a "bad batch" of 4Runner TRD wheels are having some fitment issues around the wheel hub bores... I cannot seem to find anything negative relating to the lug nuts not being able to properly secure the wheels to the Tacoma 🤔

[@eckos2310]

You can always get the new wheels and just paint the lug nuts that you already have with flat black heat resistant paint. This will work, and then you do not have to worry about the lug nut issue.

[@vario2664]

@@eckos2310 Actually, it's not just a matter of the lug nuts, but a matter of how the wheel itself sits on the hub.

TPMS number for Amazon. Have 2016 stock Tacoma sport. Same wheel set up, same tire in mind. Was leaning to 275/70/17, worried about rubbing? You recommended 265/70/17.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

The part number for the TPMS sensors should be 42607-06030 You should be able to find a 4-pack sensor kit with this part number on Amazon. Keep in mind that once you install the sensors, you will need to program the sensors to the Tacoma so that your vehicle will recognize them (I'd recommend taking your vehicle to a shop / tire shop that can program the sensors to your Tacoma). As far as tires go, I would still recommend 265/70/R17. Overtime, I have noticed a very very small amount of rubbing against the fender liners (only when turning during moderate articulation - front tires are barely scuffing the backside of the front fender liners). I hope this info helps!

As always, great video Chris. How much you inflated (PSI) your tires? I just put Toyota Open Country same size E rated.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

This wheel & tire setup will not rub. I've run this setup on both stock suspension and on an eibach stage 2 lift kit with NO RUBBING issues. Currently, my tacoma is lifted with the eibach stage 2 lift kit. As far as wheel diameter is concerned, both 16" & 17" wheels are great. My TRD Sport came with stock 17" wheels. The 4runner TRD PRO Wheels have a wider "stance" due to the +4mm offset (as opposed to the stock +35mm offset). Overall, I'm very happy with the look and the performance of this wheel & tire setup and would highly recommend it 👍

Quick question if I may please! I have a 2020 Trd Sport 4x4 and looking to get these rims. But I want to stay OEM as possible. OEM tire size on the OEM rims are 265/65/17. Would I be able to keep that tire size, "265/65/17", on the 4Runner TRD Pro rims? Would it also have a less chance of rubbing? Also seen you mention Alignment specs. Kind of confused about what that means? Is there a specific alignment I'd have to do to my Truck after installing these rims? Thank you in advance!

[@LevelUpMechanics]

Hello 👋. You can absolutely use the stock tire size (265/65/R17) with the 4Runner TRD Pro wheels 😁👍. The stock tire size will also benefit you from running into any potential "rubbing" issues. My slightly oversized tires BARELY made any contact during full left / right turns (just a very light "brush" against the front fender liners). As long as your Tacoma "drives straight", you really shouldn't need to worry about any alignment issues. To put a long story short, you really shouldn't run into any problems when installing these wheels (especially if you want to keep using the stock tire size). These wheels are still holding up great and I would highly recommend them 😁👍.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

I'm still very happy with the performance of my Falken Wildpeak Tires. It is important to note that Falken makes 2 versions of this tire; a Standard Load rated version (which is what I have) for normal daily driving and lower-to-moderate off-roading... and then there is a "E" Load rated version with a thicker sidewall that is beneficial for more aggressive off-roading. The "E" load rated version can be harder to balance sometimes and the thicker / tougher sidewalls may create a "rougher" ride (a tradeoff for having extra sidewall protection). Just some food for thought lol 😆. But yes, I'm still very happy with my Falkens!

Which you recommend for my 03 tacoma between these 2 wheels ?

[@LevelUpMechanics]

Either wheel should fit your 1st Gen Tacoma. However, the 3rd Gen TRD Sport wheel may sit closer to your suspension and may (or may not) need some 1.25" wheel spacers to give you more clearance... I've seen the 3rd Gen TRD Off-Road wheels fit without any issues in a 1st Gen, so I would imagine you'd be good to go with the TRD Sport wheels too.

Yes, I'm currently running on a completely stock suspension (eventually I'm going to do a 2" eibach lift setup). The drive feels 100% the same when compared to stock wheels and tires. Honestly, I was a little worried about louder road noise with the Falken all-terrain tires (as I've never had all-terrain tires before)... but I was extremely happy to find out that they were just as quiet as the stock Toyo tires that I had on the Taco prior to the "upgrade". I hope this info helps!

I have this set up and feel that the truck feels more grounded. No problems at highway speeds up to 90 That’s how high I have gone on these tires. Handle great. My son has this set up also.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

I agree. These wheels actually do change some of the geometry characteristics of the suspension (namely the track width and scrub radius). The wider track width of these wheels will give better handling when cornering and make you feel more "grounded" when driving 😁 (although a con would be that it could wear out the wheel bearings prematurely... though I doubt it since the change in track width is minimal). As far as scrub radius is concerned, I do not currently know what the factory scrub radius is, so I cannot say exactly how these wheels would alter this particular measurement. I'm not too worried about it though, since the change is minor. All in all, I think these wheels and tires have a lot of benefits (in addition to looking good) that make it such a popular choice for the Tacoma. Thanks for watching and letting me know about your experience with this setup! 😁

[@LevelUpMechanics]

265/70/R17 is the largest tire size that you can install on factory wheels with stock suspension. Anything bigger / wider than that and you will run into various clearance issues with the body & suspension. I just wanted to get the biggest tires I could get without having to make any body modifications. Tire companies suggest 265/65/R17 because that is the OEM tire size. I hope this info helps! 😁

265/70/R17 is about 1/2" taller, so not much difference lol. However, the all-terrain tires make the Tacoma look much more "aggressive" than the regular street / all-season tires that originally came on my Tacoma.

Will these fit on a 2017 Tacoma SR5 ? What if you don't want them to stick out too much.... go with a 245 instead?? Thanks

These will fit any 3rd Gen Tacoma 👍. The offset of the wheels is what pushes the wheels & tires out more than stock. But the difference is less than an inch (I believe it's 3/4"). A smaller tire width could help a little, but not much. Honestly, I really like my current setup. The wheels & tires sit really flush with the body, and they give the Tacoma an OEM+ stance.

I’m loving this setup! Have you had any issues with rubbing?

[@LevelUpMechanics]

It's been a couple weeks now and the only rubbing I've experienced is when I back out of my driveway while the front wheels are turned left / right... The rubbing is so minor during this scenario (like rubbing a feather across your skin) that I'm not worried about it. Also, keep in mind that I've only put 1,000 miles on these brand new tires (so they still have a full amount of tread life on them). The rubbing is happening only on the backside of the front fender liners. I should have 2 options at this point that can fix this very minor issue. I can take a heat gun and mold the front fender liners to sit more flush against the backside of the front wheel well / body. Another option would be to lift the truck (I am planning to install a 2" lift, so this will be the route that I'll take). As far as rubbing against the body of the Tacoma is concerned, I have not encountered any problems that would require a body mount chop or any extreme modification. I hope this info helps!

The tpms sensor nuts hold the tpms sensor in place. Your Tacoma will have silver tpms sensor nuts that you could re-use. You could also re-use the stock silver lug nuts too, if you wanted to.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

I only had minor rubbing issues (against the front fender liners by the front bumper) initially because, even though my tacoma drove straight, my alignment was actually not within factory specs. As soon as I performed an alignment, my rubbing issues were gone. The factory tire size is always a safe route to go... but if you want to increase your tire size just a little bit, you should be fine with 265/70/R17's (assuming that your alignment specs are normal) 😁. I hope this info helps!

[@eckos2310]

@@LevelUpMechanics another question when you went with the 265/70 R17 rims and tire set. Did you notice any wear and tear on any of the parts of your truck like u joints etc.? I know sometimes when you make the truck a little bit taller, it kind of throws off some of the parts which cause faster wear tear.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

The slightly taller wheel & tire setup technically can change your suspension & steering geometry. However, the difference when comparing these wheels & tires to stock components is virtually negligible. I also lifted the Tacoma shortly after this video (and made a video on it too), and even with the suspension upgrades, I have had ZERO issues in regards to premature wear on suspension / driveline components. Generally, the rule of thumb for a Tacoma is that as long as you don't lift the truck more than 3", you should still get normal use out of stock suspension & drivetrain components. I lifted my Tacoma 2.5" up front and 1" in the rear. No issues whatsoever 😁. So, if you still have the stock suspension installed on your Tacoma, you should definitely be good to go. Your driveshaft & suspension parts will be perfectly fine with this wheel & tire setup 👍.

[@jasonmh76]

I ended up going with this exact set up on my 2021 TRP sport and so far I'm loving. Did you notice a change with your speedometer calibration and odometer reading?

[@LevelUpMechanics]

When you change the overall diameter of the wheel & tire setup, it will inevitably throw off the speedometer (and over time, the odometer). However, since the change is minimal with this setup, I'm personally not worried about the minor discrepancy. If you're going 65 mph down the freeway (for example), in reality you're going about 67 mph. So, if you think about it, you are actually keeping miles off of the odometer (which is great for the value of your Taco)!

[@tomfrey1609]

You had lots of comments so I apologize if this was already asked, did you notice much power loss going to 1" taller tire (65 vs 70). I just got a 2022 TRD Sport that came with 17" wheels, I recently added a Sprint booster (also have one in my 21 4Runner) which helped quite a bit.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

I really didn't notice any power loss with the 265/70/R17 tires. The newer wheel & tire setup weighs virtually the same amount as the stock wheels & tires. Overall, I am very happy with the performance of these wheels & tires.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

I've heard good things about both the Toyo and Nitto tires, although I do not have any personal experience with either of them. So far, I am very pleased with the Falken Wildpeaks and they seem to perform decently in the rain (I cannot speak for snow performance because I live in Houston lol). Falken makes this tire with 2 load rated options... Standard Load (SL) and E Load ratings. I'm running the SL rated version and the ride quality is virtually identical to the stock all-season tires. A tire with an E load rating will have a harsher ride quality under normal driving conditions.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

As far as the wheels are concerned, they actually sit flush with the stock fender flares (as opposed to sticking out past them). As long as your alignment is within factory specs, you should not have any fender liner rubbing issues. One of the reasons why I am happy with these wheels is for the simple fact that they have oem fitment. They utilize the same stock lug nuts and they have the same stock hub bore diameter. I really haven't experienced any negative issues with this wheel & tire setup and I'm very happy with the performance. I hope this info helps! 😁

When increasing your tire size did you need to recalibrate odometer and speed settings somehow?

[@LevelUpMechanics]

Technically, by changing the overall diameter of the wheel & tire, you will affect the accuracy of your speedometer (and odometer). Since my larger tires (265/70/R17)are just barely bigger than the stock tires (265/65/R17), I really didn't feel the need to recalibrate anything. If my speedometer states that I'm driving 80 mph, my actual speed would be closer to 82 mph (a difference of 2 mph)... and that difference gets smaller and smaller at lower speeds. As far as odometer readings are concerned, a larger tire can actually keep your odometer reading lower than the actual mileage put on the vehicle (over a long period of time / distance). I haven't done the exact math, but let's say the odometer states that I've put 280,000 miles on the Tacoma... with bigger tires, the actual miles driven might be closer to 300,000 miles (depending on the larger tire size) because larger tires can travel more distance for each revolution. So while the discrepancy between the odometer miles & actual miles driven could technically be illegal, I am not too concerned since the change in tire size is minimal and I have no intentions of ever getting rid of the Taco lol. I'm sure that there are ways to re-calibrate if absolutely necessary, but the options to do so might be more trouble (and costly) than what it's worth for such a minor change (for my particular instance). Sorry for the long rant lol 😆. I hope this info helps. Unfortunately, I do not know of an option currently available that would allow you to recalibrate the odometer. I know there are options out there to fix speedometer discrepancies, but as I stated before, the discrepancy is so minor in my instance that I really don't see the need to "fix" it.

The weight between the stock tires / wheels & the 4Runner wheels / Falken tires is almost identical... and since the diameter of the Falken tires are barely bigger than stock, my fuel consumption hasn't changed. Currently I average about 16-17 mpg in the city and 18-20 mpg on the highway. I hope this info helps! 😁

@@LevelUpMechanics thanks so much. I liked your video. I will see more of your videos. And this will be my next option with maybe Toyo but the original wheel.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

Toyo is definitely a great brand 👍. Thanks for checking out my video(s)!

I have a 2020 Tacoma sport rear wheel drive. Will this set-up work? I've read 17' TRD pro wheels will not fit 4x2 Tacomas.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

This setup will work just fine for your Tacoma. Whoever said that these wheels aren't compatible with a RWD Tacoma is incorrect. I hope this info helps you out 😁😎

[@LevelUpMechanics]

Anytime! 👊👍

[@paulscott3039]

will those tires and rims fit a 2022 sport thats not 4x4?

[@LevelUpMechanics]

Yes, they will fit 😁👍

[@lamarvjames1102]

when you had the wheels and tires installed did you get new tpms or did you just transfer the stock ones over?

[@LevelUpMechanics]

I transferred the stock tpms sensors to the new wheels (I did purchase some black tpms aluminum stems on Amazon to match the wheels - links are in the description 😁).

[@lamarvjames1102]

@@LevelUpMechanics cool cool almost bought some lol and any issues with the tpms since you upgraded wheels and tires?

[@LevelUpMechanics]

No issues at all. The wheels are toyota wheels and the sensors are toyota sensors. 100% compatible 😁

[@junnijune6597]

Did you have any problems with the balancing of your wide peaks?

[@LevelUpMechanics]

I did have a little bit of a balancing issue with ONE of the tires when I installed them. The problem was easily fixed though. If you have trouble with excessive weight differences when balancing a tire, one useful trick is to rotate the tire on the wheel 180* (or sometimes 90*) and try again. This issue doesn't happen often, so if it does happen, rotating the tire on the wheel and rebalancing can easily fix the problem.

[@junnijune6597]

Thank you. How do you like the street ride . I’m thinking of getting those tires.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

I am actually really impressed with these tires. They feel exactly 💯 the same as the original Toyo tires that came with the Taco 🌮. Originally, I thought they might create a rougher ride, being all-terrains... but there was no change whatsoever. They are just as "smooth" as the OEM tires.

[@junnijune6597]

Thats nice to know. I think I will get them.

[@LevelUpMechanics]

They are definitely a great choice 👍. I am very happy with them, for sure!
