its way better to get the wheels with the correct offset, less failure points
if u like the trd pro stance +20mm offset with 265/70/18 is a nice middle ground without going crazy
are u sure? i know the "blink" is different from my Tacoma. i thought mine wasnt working either, it doesent "blink" when i lock the car, only if someone hits the brake
im gonna have the 3rd row stowed 99% of the time, so i bought a full cargo liner from weathertech

if ur doing it for the sound, then yes, there's a huge difference
the engine sounds deeper and the turbo spool is amplified, when u let go of the pedal u can hear the "sneeze"
