Is there a chart or site somewhere that indicates what OEM wheels will fit on what? I have 16" Tacoma wheels on my 1990 pickup. The 7" wheel width seems to limit tire size to about 265 70 R16. It looks like if I change to a 17" rim I get more tire options.
If you look at the mfg's page they list usually the rim width range and the design rim width. The thing that I've noticed is that the design rim width is not always centered within the rim width range. I've run 285/75R16's on a 6.5" wide rim. It did crown the tread, but only very slightly.
89 pickup with later Tacoma steel wheels (year unknown). No spacer, no rub, no bother.

Old post but worth a try. What rim and tire size was this? Tacoma rims seem to have 16, 17, and 18 now.2017 TRD Tacoma Wheels on 1986 IFS 4runner
Didn't see this combo, but still think it's one of the best. This was my first Runner that goat stolen last year. PO told me they were rare factory black TRD wheels, but I think he was FOS. Never the, less, the looked great.
I just went to buy new tires and was told that I'm using the wrong nuts on the alloy rims! First I've heard this since I bought my truck in 2007. I have a 1998 Toyota Tacoma EXTRA CAB SR-5 3.4L M/T 4WD. The charts say I need OEM Part Number: PTR2734060. Advance Auto Parts says I need Dorman Chrome Acorn nut #711-301. Any suggestions out there for good aftermarket lug nuts for my truck tires (pictured)?
Good info. I just took off one of the wheels and will check the holes tomorrow. Thanks. And trip to the dealership is in order!
Conversely I'm not a fan of steel wheels on anything that I own. They look appropriate on restored or even some restomodded FJ40's and some other vehicles, but I'd never own & drive such a vehicle. A friend of mine has these in 17X8 on his Early Bronco: Circle Racing Wheels - https://www.circleracing.com/108oe.htm I don't understand why.
I will agree that it has to be the right late model wheel or it will clash with the body's design theme.

I posted a couple years ago but they weren't the best pics to see the wheels. This isn't a ton better, but maybe. Stock FZJ80 alloys on my son's 1980 pickup.

Not required, but there are spacers on this truck.
I guess I'm a throw-back... like steel wheels on everything - muscle cars, old trucks, new trucks... I put '84 FJ40 wheels on my '84 Pickup and Tundra steel wheels on my '06 100 Series - when it was almost new.
