Anyone have the 18" TRD wheels on a Tundra or Sequoia?

Yes. They are of very high quality. Had 'bout two years now. It's actually a BBS wheel from Germany. Ride is really nice. -But the tires are a little lower profile compared to stock, and no one really makes a direct replacment for off road use. Except maybe Nitto 285/60/18. Otherwise a wise, if pricey, purchase. Wise because it is a TRD allowed wheel i.e.- back spacing is right. they don't rub. It's cast not forged. -For the same price u may be able to get forged wheels. But I love the shine, luster and beefy look. I don't really like the chromey look of Welds, which are forged. No regrets.

Thanks... I hear the tire pressure sensors will not work and BBS is coming up with a new design for Toyota/TRD that will allow their use. I have the 16" Ivan Stewart TRD wheels now and if I upgraded to new wheel would like to go with the bigger wheel so maybe I could add the TRD brakes.

Any further word on the sensors? I was looking at an '05 DC and wanted the 18" wheels.

Has any person tried 285/60/18s instead of the stock 275/55/18 for these wheels or 18" wheels (0" off-set) w/ 285/60s. Any rubbing? Cutting or spacer needed?

I know people here have used that tire size. I don't recall what offset they had on their rims though. That 285/60/18 size has a similar OD to a 265/75/16 tire which a lot of people run without a problem. I'm sure you can go up to a 285/55/18 tire... that is the same OD as the factory TRD/Limited tire size of 265/70/16. You might want to try a search.

From my knowledge I always thought forged wheels were better and of higher quality? Rather than getting a wheel from a mold...at least all of my hand tools are forged...the cast ones break so easily. :confused:

Your correct on this. Forged is the best and the only way to go! Very high quality and a brilliant finish. Forged wheels are made from a solid piece of aluminum. Cast wheels are made from liquid and contain porosity so they do NOT achieve the same strength,finish, quality or weight efficency as a forged wheel. Don't settle for anything else but forged!

no rubbing here!

Oh yeah. What tire brand and model.

it's in my sig...Enkei-RT6 Wheels & Yokohama AVS S/T 285/60/18

Not sure if any new experience since the post below... but I have a 2001 Tundra with 1" spacer in front and Roadmaster active suspension in rear. I have the BBS 18"ers (http://www.trdparts4u.com/PD-PTR17-34060.aspx?MakeID=1).

What is the largest tire I can put on w/o rub or issues? I would just like a 'beefier' look... more sidewall height. With these wheels and the cross terrains on them, kinda makes them look itty bitty.

Thoughts?

I think most are running 285/55/18 without lifts.
