The wheels arrived over a week ago. Earlier this week I had the 265/75s removed from the grey Tacoma and mounted on the new wheels. I went back down to 265/70s on the gray truck and also removed the 1″ spacers. It is going to take a little getting used to, but the tires no longer rub the wheel-well lining and I can put the front mud flaps back on.
I really like the look of these chrome wheels… I’ve spent quite a bit of time cleaning the tires, I’m going to give it one more go this morning and then I’ll work to put the tires on the truck. I’ll need to do a little grinding on the brake calipers to give me a little more clearance. Right now there is less than a millimeter but I figure I can safely grind the calipers to get a couple of millimeters. Then I need attach the front shock absorbers and touch up any bare metal around the knuckles, then we should be ready to get the tires on the truck!
