Camry SE wheels. Yay or nay?

Hey guys...

I purchased my Tacoma about a month ago, the dealer put on brand new 215/70r15 tires for me. When they start to wear out, I was thinking of replacing them with 18" 2012 Camry SE wheels, the gunmetal rims you see on V6 models.

Do you think these wheels would look good on an SSM regular cab? I would probably increase the tire height slightly to keep some profile to my tires, but I do not need off road capability because the worst my Tacoma ever sees is driving down trails to kayak locations or trips to Pensacola beach.

 

Photoshop anyone?

 

why not just get aftermarket rims?

 

i think they would look very good

 

I think it would look good also but would like to see a photo shop of it first if I were going to do it.

 

Photoshop attempt #1:

 

i think it would look cool. its something different that you wont see on any other taco's but its not "bling"

 

When I replace the steel wheels on my vehicles, I like to stay within the same automotive family when possible. My last car was a Kia Forte and I put rims from a Sportage on it.

 

You want to put 18x7.5's on a truck? Hope you aren't planning on getting too wide a tire...

 

Does anybody know for sure if those wheels will bolt on the 2013 Tacoma 2 wheel drive.I think they are the best looking wheels I have seen since I put vintage 911 fuch alloys on my 67 VW beetle. I was thinking of keeping the stock wheels for the winter and renewing my inspection sticker. They may not give me a sticker if the low tire pressure stays on. They should be close to the same height, if not I would put tires on the rims that would be the same height as stock. Any help would be great like what the difference in offset is etc. Thanks Tom

 

Why noy? Xrunners come with 18" from factory with 255/45/18 tires.


Whats the offset and BS on those OP?

 

I am assuming you have the 5 lug tacoma? That is the first obvious part. Your profile just says 2 wheel drive but I am assuming you are the 5 lug version. Not sure on the offset of these wheels and your model as it is different from mine.

Second, If you purchase a set of TPMS sensors from ebay (~$40 for OEM take-offs) you can have them installed when you get the new wheels mounted and balanced. Not sure where in Mass you are, but when I do the same thing, I was promised by Wellesley Toyota that they would program them for free for me if I had them mount and balance. That would solve your dilemma on the TPMS light staying lit for inspection.

 

No offense they kind of look like spinners, especially in the photoshop pic.

 

Someone with better knowledge than me may chime in, but I swear trucks usually have that donkey**** that sticks out of the center hub, that cars usually don't have. I'm not that familiar with the 5-lug models, but if it has that the sedan wheel may not fit over the hub, or may if you leave the center cap off.

 

Back when I had my SRunner I rolled the Lexus IS rims. They flowed beautifully. I'll throw up a pic when I get to the computer. I had to do mess with it a bit to get the caps over the hubs.

 

No. I don't like the look.

 

They should fit just fine, i was looking at some stock scion steele wheels for a while before I found my z32tt wheels. The 5 lug shares the bolt pattern and hub with most the fwd toyotas. I have seen rav4 and highlander wheels swapped onto our trucks, and for a street truck they look nice. Just know that some other wheels dont clear the front brakes without a little grinding.

5x114.3
60.1 mm hub size... and I forget the offest.... -40 or something

 

I quess the smart play would be to find a wheel and see if it fits. Thanks for the quick replies. Im on my 6th Tacoma 2 wheel drive 5 speed single cab and looking to trade in again. Bummer that they don't make the single cab anymore. $3500 more for the extra cab,but they offer it now with the rear seat delete package -$1440. Red 2004,white 2005,black 2007,gold 2009,white 2011,white 2013. A black or magnetic gray tacoma would look great with those wheels. Thanks again Tom

 

Why do you only keep them for two years?

 

I think it would look pretty cool. Definitely different.
