    Most likely if they came off a second gen Tundra, they will fit no problem.

    20" wheels and tires are often the same overall diameter. The difference is the 20" tires have less side wall height than the 18".

    Lots of peeps like 18" wheels because you have more sidewall and it gives you a better ride in many cases.

    Can you roll one of the 20" wheel/ tires out to your truck and compare the overall height?

    Your 2007 has the same suspension as a 2017. If the trucks are the same option package, those wheels should work.

    You may end up with some rubbing depending on a lot of different variables. That tire is 2" larger diameter and the offset will be putting you a lot closer to a lot of plastics and your body mount... there are so many variables that go into these wheel and tire combination discussions that the final answer in most cases is you just have to try and then deal with the consequences if they do occur.

    So if this end up happening does a good solution with no consequences in the future would be a good idea to put a 1.5 spacer level to the top of the shock in the front that would help I really don’t want to lift my truck at all but are this is a good idea or not

    https://www.tundras.com/threads/largest-tire-you-can-run-stock-for-all-generations.9762/

    If you have not already, glance through this thread and you can see what I'm talking about. There are back-to-back posts in some places where a certain tire size will work on one truck and not on another truck. In regards to lifting, there are also differing opinions on that. Some will say that a 1.5" - 2" lift/level will help fit larger tires and others say if you can't fit the tires you want at stock height you are just pushing the problem down the road. One thing that a small lift/level will likely net you is to retain close to the factory caster, the alignment shop will need to push the lower control arm forward away from the cab mount.

    What you will 'most likely' have to do no matter what with that tire and offset is remove the small mud flap in the rear of the front fender well and either put a small spacer behind the front bumper to push it out a little bit or use a heat gun and deform the fender liner plastic in the front bumper area to avoid rubbing up front (this is super common on this site and plenty of people can help with that process). The big gamble is whether or not you will hit the cab mount (this will require the most work if it needs to be cut to clear tires). My recommendation is to do some visualizing based on the way your truck sits now. The new tire will sit 40mm further out or ~1.5" and will be 1" larger diameter. If you can get a piece of wood or something to visualize where that would put the outside edge of the tire then turn your wheels to various positions and check the clearance that you have, that will give you the best idea of how much work you will have to do.
