    To be honest, I’ve tried three other recommended blackout products…this is the first big boy product I have tried on my truck. But the boy’s 4R is covered in it.

    It's not like I want to be riding on dicks all day, but these Centerlines on dicks showed up on NextDoor. Seller had them on her 4Runner when she bought it, is asking $950 which is about $350 too high based on the amount of polishing needed and condition of the tires, but ...

    I'm assuming these are impossible without at least 2" of lift and lots of trimming on the '00-'06 eh? She provided no info on BS/OS (and I suck with wheels and suspension, seriously)

    Yeah, even without knowing the width/backspace a 12.5 tire is a lot. Could be the angle but those wheels look like they have very low backspacing so the tires will stick out a lot and hit the bumper/pinch weld areas. Probably clear frame and upper arm. That's a lot to pay for the trouble though.

    I agree with Luis even though I don’t know sheet. I barely clear 8.5 wheel with no trim and a level-ish lift up front. About a 32” tire. Offset and backspace are as big a factor as tire size, IMO. 12.5 is really wide.

    Those centerlines are crusty af.
    As long as the wheels will fit over your brakes, you can make em fit.

    But you're right. At least 2" of lift, some trimming, and some offset magic will be required to make them fit.

    You'll run into a lot of issues with those unfortunately. I like those wheels too.

    Closest size I can think of is a 305/70r16 (33x12) which has been done on wheels with 3.5" backspacing, 2" of lift, aftermarket upper arms, and a good amount of trimming. It's pretty hard to stuff a tire that wide on these trucks. Makes me mad when I see Rangers rolling on 35x12.5s and we struggle to fit 33x11s.

    If you squint your eyes enough they look just like SCS F5s.
    :rofl:

    It's probably a matter of age or nostalgia. Those take me back to the early 90s, I like them. They would better suit an 80s or early 90s Toyota pickup but putting them on. First gen works too.

    Replaced my fan clutch a few days ago, part #FCT-018 Aisin from rock auto. Nuts were so damn tight I rounded them all, using a locking plier I was able to remove the nuts, no need to remove radiator, I was able to move assembly to the side and removed fan clutch from there( shown pic #3). Old fan clutch was stealing more power that normal causing hesitation and roaring air sound at times. Truck runs happier/snappier and mpg improved. Removing serpentine belt made reinstall a lot easier!
