Recommended Wheel offset

Hi, I’m wondering if anyone can tell me the factory offset for wheels on a 2002 Tundra. I’m looking into ordering another set of 18” rims but I want to keep the handling in check. Any recommendations would be helpful!!

 

The door says factory size was 16”. I bought the truck with aftermarket 18” rims on it. I am not sure the offset on the aftermarket ones. I was just going to keep 18” so I don’t have to get all new tires too.

 

Take one of your wheels off and look on the back. The offset/backspace should be stamped or etched on the back.

 

I’m not sure it’s set at the best offset. The handling is a little strange and the outside of the tires have extra wear up front.

 

well, at least knowing what your current wheel specs are, you’ll know what to avoid.

 

what size tires are you running now? Example: 265/60/18

Some oem 18’s look pretty sweet. Yes, this is a Tacoma but the bolt pattern is the same.

Sounds like an alignment might fix some of your issue.

These and the wheels in my previous post are the only oem 18’s (that fit) that look any good on a first gen tundra. Aftermarket options are very limited when it comes to 18’s. You’d have to start looking at 16’s and 17’s for more/better selection.
