Fitting 17" Wheels On 4G - No Issues With Clearance! | 4th Gen Tacoma Forum

What was Toyota thinking with putting an 18 gallon tank in the 4th gen Tacoma?? My wife's EV has more range than the Tacoma does on a full tank as I can't get more than 280 miles on a tank. I do mostly city driving with some highway but still even the 4Runner I had before would go nearly 340 miles on a tank. I wish I had known this about the Tacoma before I leased it. I may be reconsidering the option to purchase this once the lease is up and may go to a used 3rd gen Tacoma or a Colorado new or used.

Hey everyone. I know wheels are a big topic that a lot of people look into upgrading. Personally, while the 18" wheel my OR had from factory didn't look bad, I like to see as much tire sidewall as possible. 17" wheels help here. The tires are also usually cheaper. No clearance issues at all. Plenty of caliper clearance. These are Lock Off-Road Combats if anyone is curious!
