Hi,
Has anyone tried to fit 275/70/17 deflated in the spare? It seems to be only 15mm difference in diameter over 265/65/18, which fits fully inflated with OEM hatch. If you do fit it, then do you have kdss spacers?
Thanks

Went with the Wildpeaks size 265/70/r17 on Bronze OEM TRD wheels. These will go in a 2017 Nightfall Mica Blue. Will post pick tomorrow after installation.

Went with 265/70/R17 Falken Wildpeak. Really happy with the ride. I feel like the pics dont do justice. Looks really good in person. I am rubbing, but only on left turns at close to full lock. I will be changing the bolt to a flat or pan head. I only back into my parking spots and have had no issues with that…. yet. Road noise is for the most part, same as before.

used original lugs. Now i need to find a roof rack and ladder. Thanks for the support, you guys/ gals really helped me with the decision making and size.

For anybody with the TRD matte black wheels, how are you caring for them? What products are you using to clean/dress them?

We're getting closer to non-winter weather here in MN so the level of vehicle cleaning/detailing goes up. I love clean wheels and tires but want to make sure I get it right with these wheels. On other vehicles I use Meguiar's All Purpose Cleaner on the wheels and tire sidewalls. Does a great job of removing the brown from the tire and dirt from the wheels. Followed up with Meguiar's HyperDressing. I usually allow that on the wheels and just wipe it off.

Given the matte finish I'm a bit concerned about getting dressing on them turning them into a splotchy matte/gloss or all gloss finish.

Thanks.

Mines gone through puberty the last 6 months. 265/65/18 Falken Wildpeak AT3s on 18x9 matte bronze fuel wheels and some other goodies as well as some plastic surgery.

My GX did not come with wheel locks so going to buy it. Taking off 1 lug nut per rim should be easy. When putting it on, do I need to lift or jack up the GX, and tighten it? Or leaving it on the ground should do be fine?
What's the proper torque value for it?
Thanks guys!

I found the torque specs in the manual. 76 ft- lbf for the 19 rims. Still would love to hear what you guys would recommend.
