    Hey Folks,

    I'm having a real hard time trying to nail down some new summer tires. The Blizzaks I tried this winter were amazing, but I gotta get them off, like yesterday...

    I want to get a set of Cooper Discoverer AT/3 4S and new rims. I've been getting the run around from a few shops now. It seems real hard to find the proper sized rims. At this point I'm ready to just go online and buy what I need and take it to my mechanics to install. But after one shop already ordering the wrong sized rims back when I was putting my winter tires on, I really wanna make sure I get everything in the proper size/spec.

    I Believe what I'm looking for is:
    265/70R16
    Rim: 7Jx16 ET15
    PCD: 6x139.7
    Center Bore: 106.1 mm

    It seems that 15mm offset is part of what is making rims tricky to find. One shop said I could go with 20mm, but I'm still not seeing much. How much wiggle room is there in the offset?

    Can anyone recommend a great online tire shop that is either in Canada, or ships to Canada reasonably? Much thanks!

    Still trying to figure out this offset business. I see a set of rims on Kijiji that has the right bolt pattern, but lists the offset as "Medium". According to an article I just saw, 15mm (stock offset) is the bottom end of 'Medium' ranging from 15-25. So theoretically should anything in the "medium" range of 15-25mm be ok for my Taco?

    Did you ever figure this out?

    I'm having a similar problem right now as well. Looking to replace the stock alloy wheels on my '02 4x4 doublecab.

    Also in Canada.

    Cheers!

    Sorry, never did. I was lucky and found a good condition set of stock rims on Kijiji. It seems really hard to find the proper size, so used stock was the best solution. $200 for the set, can't complain at all.

    A 16x8 wheel with 0 offset will fit perfect. @Discount Tire should have what you need give them a call and see if they ship to Canada.
