You might struggle to clear the calipers. I fitted 16" rims to my SR and some styles still touched the calipers.

looking at the sr brake caliper there looks like there is room to go to 15" rims some one on here must know for shore. the hilux comes with an ofset of -30 using standard rims with wide tyers I think would be asking for trouble. I had been recomended to go to an ofset of -6 witch to some people I told thort crazy but I think would be on the money using a 7" rim with 32/11.5/15 the ofset of -6 gets the rim and tyer out from the chasie all you need then is the hight and fleres. on my 92 hilux I have 32/11.5/15 bfg m/t with no fleres and very litle power. will find it hard to go back to a smaller tyer as I think that tyer size is one of the most inportant things in 4x4ing. has any one got 32/11.5/15 on there truck and what is there suspenshion set up and there rim ofset

The alloy SR5 rim is 15x7" with a PLUS 30mm offset.... is the 16" rim really minus 30???

I am now looking at going at +10 rims as I hear that widening your standard wheel width by more than 50mm is ilegal so you can widen by 25mm each side leaves you with at least +5 in my previous post I ment to say +30
