If the computer doesn't say it, it doesn't exist, and can't be done. Schools nowadays don't teach logic, apparently. My '05 Tacoma came with horrible, skinny wheels, which I swapped out for alloy Mustang rims, at the first tire purchase. Now, every time I buy tires, I get a lecture about my wheels not being "hub-centric", and I'm endangering myself and others, and they might not warranty the tires. I ask the "expert" did he know all automotive wheels were "lug-centric" for over 80 years, and almost no one ever lost a properly torqued wheel? Blank stare. I'm glad I'm old. Twenty more years of this, and I would really croak. You now have to do your research ahead of a purchase, because the computer might not let them sell you what you want. Jeez! Find your tires and get them from someone with functioning brain cells. IslandJim
