00:00My 2021 Forerunner had one problem that bugged me every single time I walked up to it.
00:05Look at the wheels.
00:06They sit tucked way inside the fenders.
00:09All-terrain tires, and the stance just looked weak.
00:12So I fixed it.
00:13With these, 30mm wheel spacers.
00:16And this video is the whole story.
00:18The measuring, the install, the size I choose, and whether I'd do it again.
00:23Quick context on the truck.
00:242021 Forerunner, black, aftermarket wheels with zero offset, all-terrain tires.
00:31If your setup looks anything like this, everything in this video applies to you.
00:35First thing I did, measured.
00:37Steel ruler against the fender, down to the outer edge of the tire.
00:41Front came out at 25mm.
00:44Rear, 10.
00:45So I knew roughly what I needed.
00:47A week later the box showed up.
00:48For spacers, and I gotta say, the packaging was better than most car parts I've ordered.
00:53Instructions, warranty card, the whole thing.
00:56First impression holding them.
00:58These are forged 6061T6 aluminum, and they feel like it.
01:02The machining is clean, knurled edges.
01:05The cooling grooves on the back.
01:0712.9 grade studs pressed in.
01:09Specs, if you're checking fitment for your own truck.
01:136x139.7 bolt pattern.
01:15106.1 center bore.
01:18M12x1.5.
01:19Hub-centric, which matters, and I'll tell you why in a minute.
01:23Install day.
01:24Jack it up.
01:25Jack stands.
01:26Always jack stands.
01:27Wheels off.
01:28If you've ever rotated your own tires, you can do this.
01:31One step people skip.
01:33Clean the hub.
01:34Rust and gunk keep the spacer from sitting perfectly flat.
01:37Hit it with rust remover.
01:39Wire wheel.
01:40Wipe it down.
01:41Spacer goes on.
01:42Seated on the hub lip.
01:44Then the grade 10 nuts.
01:45Star pattern.
01:46Torque to 113Nm.
01:49That click is a satisfying sound.
01:51We'll back on.
01:52Torque the factory lugs in a star pattern.
01:55Drop it down.
01:56Torque again.
01:57Remember, my front measured 25mm.
02:00So on the front wheel, I bolted on a 25 first.
02:03And honestly, it looked good.
02:05Nothing wrong with it.
02:06But then I tried the 30.
02:08Same wheel.
02:09Same spot.
02:10And man.
02:11More aggressive.
02:12More balanced.
02:13The whole truck just looks right.
02:15Side by side.
02:165mm.
02:17About a fifth of an inch.
02:1925 was good.
02:2030 is better.
02:21It's not about right or wrong.
02:23It's about how far you want that stance to go.
02:26And I wanted all of it.
02:27So, 30 on all four corners.
02:30Front and rear both sit dead, even now.
02:33Aggressive, but still clean.
02:35Not poking out, just perfectly flush.
02:37And here it is.
02:39Same truck.
02:40Same wheels.
02:41Just 30mm wider each side.
02:43The stance finally matches what this truck should have looked like from the factory.
02:47You can see the spacer sitting between the hub and the wheel.
02:50Hub-centric.
02:51So the hub lip carries the load.
02:53Not the studs.
02:55That's the thing I mentioned earlier.
02:56It's why fitment matters more than brand.
02:59Would I do it again?
03:00Yeah.
03:00Absolutely.
03:01Measure your truck.
03:03Buy hub-centric.
03:04Torque it right.
03:05That's the whole game.
03:06Now I'm curious.
03:07What size are you running on your 4Runner?
03:09Drop your setup in the comments.
03:11I read every single one.
03:13And if this helped you decide, hit like, it gets this in front of more 4Runner people.
