Finally got these on, looks amazing. Some minor rubbing on the front drivers side, only with the wheel turned all the way right and under some compression. There's a black piece/box of plastic right in front of the tire, it's not the fender liner. Trying to figure out what it is before I remove/modify it, haven't had time to inspect it really. Whatever it is, it's just on the drivers side.
(EDIT: it's the cover for the windshield washer tank)
Otherwise no rubbing so far, AHC with 285/75/16, and pinch welds done.

Me too! I almost went with bronze, but this looks perfect.
I'm surprised no one has run into rubbing with the windshield washer tank. I think I will relocate it using a smaller universal tank when I have the time. Seems like an easy project, and a small price to pay for this setup!
I think I like the grey better than my black F5's, but I have a pearl truck, so I didn't want to risk it looking off.
I have experienced zero rubbing. I'm taking off my running boards soon and installing the Owl Expedition lights when they arrive. I'll throw up some new photos when complete.

Hope you didn’t buy these. The answer is no, unless you want to “grind down on the 2mm lip in the center-bore” so you can “have a more unique setup”.
I have one brand new F5 for sale in the box, If anyone is interested-

Yeah I like the Bronze with White look (Alita is white with black bumpers).
However, not a huge fan of the F5 on the 100, personally like the BR6, SR8 or even the Stealth6 but alas none of them come in 16" and I have practically brand new 285/75r16 that came with the truck when I bought it.... First world problems right!
I'm in the same boat. Same size and fairly new Nitto Terra Grapplers came with it. I would like to get some use out of them. I like the idea of 16" for off road. It will not be a daily driver. I like hub caps, but then I might like not having to worry about upkeep. Reminds me of the good old days when people would paint their wheels black and just have chrome lug nuts.

Right.... probably have bout 15k miles on my Wildpeak AT3Ws that came with the truck. Difference is Alita is a daily driver. I don't mind the 16", wife's 4Runner has 17" which are what I would ultimately like to go for (little more variety in tire options) but then again I am cheap so the 18" Tundras would be optimal for me. Plus I very rarely wheel (few times a year, less than a dozen for sure) and this truck will end up having towing duty added to it.

Is this stock height? Sits really well. Trying to decide if it’s worthwhile to lift the truck at the same I buy the wheels/tires.
Yessir. I’m going to exhaust and enjoy the ahc until i build past it’s weight capacity. It’s done very well for me on the trails thus far!
I purchased the 16x8 4.90" BS 5x150 SCS F5 wheels for my 2000 LC. I went to have them put on today and was told the front wheels didn’t properly fit. The backs fit fine. When I went to the tire shop I noticed there was some wobble on the hub, like they were a tad small, but felt like the wheel could possibly sit properly on the hub when lugs were impacted on. The tire company wouldn’t install the wheels saying they were too small and could shear off the lugs. Is this a common problem? What’s the fix? Thanks for your help.
