    You have to get the center bored out first.

    You don't need to bored them out if you will run spacers. They have to be at least 1.5".

    It would look funny if you only had them in the front so yes.

    Yes they will fit, but youll need spacers for the front. A good friend of mine has them on his extra-cab & Im planning to install mine after the first of the year on my truck as well. He & I both are running 1-inch spacers, have plenty of clearance & you can barley notice the spacers. Oh & I bought my spacers off Ebay too & here are some pics of his truck too...

    Actually, I just tried to bolt up the rears on my truck with no spacers and it won't work. The little flange that sticks out into the center bore of the wheels is about 2 5/8" and the hole in the center of the is300 rims is about 2 3/8". The center bore is slightly tapered so it is possible you could get by with as little as 1/4" spacers and get them to fit, but to be safe you would probably want at least a 1/2" spacer. I am going to run 1" spacers all around. I just was really eager to see these rims on my truck so I wanted to bolt up the rears until I get the spacers in the mail.

    So yeah, you need spacers on the rear too.

    OK, so I thught I would try out the fit of my new lugnuts even though my wheel spacers are still not here yet (******* Ebay). The shank doesn't fit the holes in the wheels right. There is at least .0625" of play. I guess these rims are hub centric? So how are people running them on there pick ups with spacers? Did I get the wrong spacers? The ones I got don't have a ring for the wheel to center on. Are people using acorn style lugs on the flat bore of the wheels? I can't see this working very well without countersinking the holes to the appropriate angle so the lugs seat properly. This seems like a pretty viable option. I am lost on this one. Any help would be greatly appreciated as the spacers are finally on there way and I am going to want to mount up my rims. Thanks.

    Correct, these wheels are hub centric but the spacers I ran on my truck were lug centric(flat). It does sound that you are using the wrong lug nut. There shouldn't be any play. Look into getting the ones from Toyota with the shaft/washer. If you haven't already but some spacers I have a set for sale 1.25" that I used to run the GS400 rims on my truck.

    Yeah, I got shank type new style mag lugnuts in the right thread pitch and everything but I guess they come in different outside diameters... Crap. I guess it's back to ebay.
