    I believe I found the wheels I want but are available in (2) sizes:
    18x9.5, -18 offset or
    18x8.5, 0 offset
    Looking to mount 265/60/18 tires to get as close as possile to 265/65/17 diameter and plan to have a 2" lift in the near future if that helps any.

    I don't mind a slight poke, but I am not willing to do a CMC on my Tacoma, also no cutting of the fender well either. Any insight is greatly appreciated on fitment of the two wheel choices above!

    For what it’s worth; I am running Black rhino(glamis)18x9 wheels with +12 offset and LT265/70/18 Toyo Opencountry ATIII. I have a lift. Before a lift I ran the same wheels with 265/65/18 and no rub.
    I’d go with the zero offset personally.

    But honestly your current wheels are awesome.

    Lol. Wow. I didn’t even realize that was a Tundra.
    The 0 offset will have less poke than the -18 and be better at avoiding any rub with the tires. You will be at pretty much factory tire size, so there should be issues.

    Go with the 0 offset. A 265 will look like crap on 9.5” wide wheel.

    Looks pretty good - shocked that those are a +12 offset. Have any pics from straight side to show poke if any?

    These are both with a 265/65/18.

    Looks pretty good! Any CMC, bumper trimming or any other fitment issues? What size lift are you on?

    The 265/65/18 had no rubbing even before the lift. with 265/70/18 I had to trim about 2” of the fender to avoid any rubbing when turning into a driveway.
    I am running about a 1.5”-1.75” lift up front.
