Concave wheel on 200 series

[Reg Wang]

By concave, I'm referring to those old school, deep dish-like wheels, preferrably with round holes. In fact, I can live with not-so-deep wheels, such as on the 4runner or the GM trucks. I love the American Racing series but the bolt pattern won't fit. Any recommended wheel that's small, concave (less offset than factory of 51mm) and won't stick out the fender too much?

In my 2013 LC world, the stock wheels have an offeset of 60mm and the TRD "Rock Warrior" wheels have an offset of 50mm.

The TRD wheels stick out 10mm more than the stock wheels.

Any aftermarket wheel with a lower offset value will stick out more than the stock wheels. E.g., a wheel with an offset of 30mm will stick out 30mm more than a stock wheel; and an aftermarket wheel with an offset of 20mm will stick out 40mm more than stock.

Here's a good tool for you to get an idea of how wheel offset will affect various wheel/tire characteristics: Rim & Tire Size Calculator. Custom Offsets

Have fun with your wheel search. Also, bear in mind that the Load Rating for any wheel you are considering should be >2500 pounds to match the safety of the OEM wheels. Further, be sure the center bore is 110 or 110.5mm so it will conform to the stock requirement of being hubcentric.

In regards to the .5mm... Intuitively, this at most would result in a runout of .25mm at the tire. That is well within the noise of acceptable wheel runout, not to mention tire runout which has even larger tolerances. For all intents and purposes, I'd consider that hubcentric.

Good to go!

@gaijin, I've been trying to track down the answer to this question. Just wanted to confirm that a delta of 0.5mm (which I can barely make out on my ruler) would still be considered "hub centric". The main reason I ask is that I'm considering the 2019 Tundra TRD Pro BBS forged wheels. However the 2014+ Tundras have a 110.5mm hub instead of the LC200's 110.0mm hub. I've seen your posts, so your feedback goes a long way.

Thanks, I appreciate the kind words. I wish I could give you a good answer, but I simply do not know for sure whether the difference is a "real" difference or not. I tend to agree with @TeCKis300 , though, in that a 0.01 inch runout would probably not make any difference in the real world if one is careful to properly torque the lugs (i.e. a little at a time in a cross pattern so all lug nuts seat evenly).

I think you would not have a problem with the TRD Pro BBS forged wheels, but I can't guarantee it. If it were me, I'd give them a try.

Thank you @TeCKis300 and @gaijin. Wealth of knowledge in these forums - so much so that I had to Google the meaning of runout.

The only wheel of the style that you are describing that I've seen that "fits" the 200 series is the Level 8 Tracker.

It's a 12mm offset, which will put your tires 48mm (almost 2") further outside the wheel wells than stock, and likely you'll have some rubbing issues, particularly if you go with wider tires and don't have a lift. I did see one cruiser on here with them. When I bought my 200 it had a small lift, 275/70 R18 tires, and 2" wheel spacers, and I did not have any substantial rub, so 12mm offset is doable, but outside of what most folks think of as optimal.
