Wheel offset

Hey guys, I have a 2002 Tacoma, with basic painted steel wheels. The truck calls for a wheel with a -4 to 20mm offset. I bought some 18' Tacoma wheels with a 30mm offset. Lug pattern is correct. Has anyone added these newer wheels using spacers or should I just sell them and start over.

They should be fine. Is your 2002 a 2.7L?, 3.4L?, 2wd prerunner?, 4wd?
Any way the stock wheels are going to be somewhere between +15 to +40 offset and the 3rd gen sport wheels are +30 offset and will work with up to 265/70/17 tires. You should be able to mount them and run them no problems. Post pictures and let us know what you do.

It is a 3.4, 4wd. It’s just the info I got offline said -4 to 20mm and the sport wheels I bought shows 30mm. The tire dimensions are the same as my 16” I have on the truck now. The offset puts the tire really close to the top A arm/ball joint. Not enough room to pass my hand. I should have taken a picture.D709A3CE-E2A0-481E-940C-0AE478DEE168.jpeg C4D86ABD-4444-4C7F-B64A-09F5923EC0B0.jpeg
 
Should be fine. I’ve seen lots of first gens with 3rd gen wheels on them 265/65/17 tires are ok.
