| Will they rub??
I'm still rim/tire shopping and came across a set of 18's that are 8 wide with 45 offset, will they rub? |

nope - those are the specs on the TRD upgrade wheels for xB's - except they are 7.5" wide and you will need to run a set of 10mm spacers to clear the rear suspension brace - also if you are lowered (a lot - like 3"+) you will need to make sure you aren't gonna bite your fenders when you turn | |

like width wise? it would be dependent on the offset, but once above +45et then you need to start putting in spacers to clear, I haven't seen anything bigger then 20" diameter and the timing gets WAY screwed up anyways going that big or beyond. but the 18's are fine cuz they are available as upgrades from toyota dealerships | |

I drive a gen1 - therefore I assumed smitty had a gen1 . . .oh well, cuz I have also seen 20's on gen1's and you could probably go to 22's on gen 2's - whoops, muh bad | |

Ok, I got another one here for you...What about 18" factory SC430 rims/tires? Has the same lug nut pattern, 255/45/18 tires, 8 width, and 45 offset. Will they fit?
and another set I'm looking at are on 215/40/18 tires, and 42 offset?

not too keen on the gen 2 clearance but I imagine the SC430 rims will fit fine - im just not sure what stock tire size is for gen2's | |
