    2010 sr5 4x4 3’ lift. Just got some used wheels for my 4runner, got some 17x8.5 Method 305’s. I researched online and every website I see said they would fit. Also online there are pictures of them on 5th gens. My dust cap is way to big to clear the bore. Am I missing something? Is there something I can do or am I SOL?

    If it doesn't cause a rubbing issue, maybe you could use some wheel spacers to bump the rims out past the hubs.

    What is the wheel’s center bore? Is there a centric ring in there that can be removed? I think our 4Runners are 106.


    If not you’re SOL

    There's nothing to remove so I may be SOL, the gap is so small though.

    Put a 5mm wheel spacer on the hub. That should solve the problem.

    My understanding is that the 4Runner relies on hub centric wheel fitment for wheel centering and support. I would be concerned trying a work around using wheel spacers. This would put all of the shear loading on the lugs.

    Did the previous owner run these wheels on a Colorado or Titan? I see a hubcentric ring or center cap in the wheel in your photo. Pop it out and the wheel should fit.

    Once you are successful in getting the wheels to fit, you'll want to pick up a set of 108-106.1mm hubcentric rings, for example: https://realtruck.com/p/gorilla-automotive-hub-centric-rings/gau-108-106-1/
