Here they are with 265/70R18s. Edit: still need to get the center caps on...

Probably a silly question, but for those of you who hammered the dust cap flat to get the wheel caps to fit without spaces, I’m assuming you remove the dust cap and do the hammering on a bench? As opposed to hammering with it on the axle still. Sorry if this is moronic.

I have been wondering the same thing, but was leaning the other direction, since it doesn't take much flattening to make it fit.

Haven’t done it myself, but pretty sure you would want to hammer while the dust caps are installed. If you don’t you risk deforming the dust cap so that it will be out of round and not fit back in the hub. You also could flatten it too much to where it will not seat fully without contacting the end of the axle.

18" steelies off what I believe was a 2nd Gen Tundra. This is with AHC in High.

I don't think there are any spacers because it barely gets dirty when driving through the mud. In my limited offroading experience, I'm pretty much always the cleanest after a trail, and I'm trying really hard to get muddy.

How’s the offset?
I dig it!
I've just sold these wheels. They looked fantastic but they offset was just too much to live with.

Standard 100 series is +60 offset. These are -25

I had the experience of clipping corners a couple of times and I just felt like the tradeoff on handling and wear wasn't worth it. I'd also have to get flares as they poked 40mm outside the edge of the guards
 
2016+ Land Cruiser wheels, 1.25” Bora spacers front and back, and Goodyear Ultra Terrain AT 275/70/18.

Wheel spacers need to go on first otherwise front wheels will not clear hub flange.

300k and still going strong. Wash and waxed for the winter. Installed the Iron man 2" cell pro lift, awesome.
Looking to have the front wheel centers fit, using the older caps for 8 years now, going to flaten the dust caps.

I just got the exact same setup as you. what part of the cap did you grind? How flat did you do the grease cover?
Here you go:

I hammered (lightly tapped) the dust cap end while on the truck. Also you will need to grind down the center of the plastic center cap with a die grinder. Test fit with paint on the dustcap and fit center cap. No paint on centercap, good 2 go. Steve
