Yeah this thread does either need to move or close if your question has been answered.
I don't know the exact specs for the combination you're going to do, but here's my 2 cents to add for you for what it's worth... When looking over all of the specs don't forget to factor in the height of the wheel balancing weights for clearence... assuming the wheel set you have has them mounted on the inner part of the rim and NOT on the lip.
As for buying from TRD Sparks, I've dealt with them over the past few years since I started owning Scions. IMHO they are a great place to do business with, especially their aftermarket TRD dept. of their business. Have always had every very aggressive pricing & great customer service.

Try contacting Ken @ TRD Sparks he's really good to work with. I know he also posts here on SL for TRD Sparks (a sponsored seller)

Hope that helps.
I don't moderate this particular forum so I'll pass it on to get it moved.

I have the TRD brakes on super 7s. You will need 8 mm spacers and you will need to manualy align the rim to the hub since you will no longer be able to auto center the rim. It is very tight, only 2.5 mm clearance but it works.

^^ even though they are OEM 18's I'm still a fan of that combination. Plus there are only two of OEM TRD wheels that I'm a fan of, and these are one of them.
