Trailhunter Wheels (265/70R18) on Stock 2024 TRD Off-Road

I have anticipated this and have purchased a cut of 3m ppf to put on that area. I need to make a template and get it done before my wheels get here

@SonoranSurvivalist Hey, sorry to keep pestering you about this topic, but my last two wheels are being delivered today (fingers crossed this time) and I'm expecting to get them installed late next week once the tires come in. Are the original lugs ok to reuse, or will I need to purchase a different set? I also pre-emptively purchased a 1.25" front spacer lift from Peak Suspension just in case there's a need for a little extra room, but I'm hoping I won't need it. I may install it anyway to level out the truck slightly. It was relatively inexpensive in any case.

The lugs were the same, spacer isn't needed... I've gone 4 wheeling and have had zero rubbing at stock height.

Ok cool. Yeah, I went with 275/70R18 tires, which are 33.2" diameter, so I think they're gonna be tight. The spacers might give me a little more breathing room, but I intend to install the wheels first to see how it goes.

Did you by any chance throw them on a scale?

I weighed the bronze wheels at just over 33 lbs each. I also had the opportunity to weigh the 18" OR hybrid wheels since I was sent those by mistake, and they were nearly identical weight-wise (I think @Lando was interested in doing this potentially). The tires that you select are likely to have a much bigger impact on gas mileage than the weight of the wheels themselves, but it all adds up.
