I'm in the middle of getting my RWs setup on my 2015 but I will likely trade in for a 2020.
Wondering if there are any known issues running the RW on the 2020.

None.
Do it.
 
The only issue is making sure your wheel balance guy doesn’t double stack the sticky lead weights. The brake caliper is very close to the barrel of the wheel and too much lead there will hit and knock some off.

If you get five read up on the potential problems with the spare tire chain adapter. Not sure what later models have but those of us with earlier trucks had to modify the part a little bit.

I saw a report on here that stated no modification is required to the spare carrier for his 16+.

Here's the thread if anyone else needs to see it. Easy mod to do with a dremel if your 2008-2015 requires it. It fits the standard wheel the same.

Landcruiser 200 TRD Rock Warrior Fix

Hey guys, just figured a very clean workaround for the spare tire holder not working with TRD Rock Warrior Rims! Step 1 = cut the closest link to the dongle in half Step 2 = cut 1/2 inch (no more!) off the sleeve of the guide tube Step 3 = test by inserting in same manner show in picture Step...

Word has it Toyota finally fixed the chain lift piece so it comes ready to fit through Rock Warriors.
Only took them 11 years... lol
 
Thank you all for the info.
Still working the numbers for the 2020... 2015 has 21K miles with 1+ years left on warranty so we will see what happens.

Lots of us have made jump to 2020.

My unofficial count has been 7 members on this forum who have traded their 15/16/17/18 200 for a 2020

I traded my 16 for a built 19 bc the price was too good for me to pass up and I wasn’t getting a Heritage. (Sort of making a faux Heritage by blacking our my headlights, getting the BBS rims, and a heritage grill). But congrats on the 2020.

Your new one looks great. Good riddance to the 2016.

I believe this is your 6th 200 series? Its our 5th. Gotta get the newest.

Enjoy the new 19 :)

Mmmmmkay.....

Clearly you don’t measure up at just 5 to his 6.... :hillbilly:

....And I’m not even on the...um...ruler. :eek:
:rimshot: :rofl:
 
I have RW on my 2019 (essentially identical to 2020) --- ZERO issues. I have a RW spare too and it fits perfectly. I read that some older 200 owners (pre-2014 or 2015) had to modify the hanger for the spare. Not an issue with newer 200's.

You will be good to go!

I was just out in PT today. A little dryer than T-town.
