I have a set of rims with a bolt pattern of 5x4.53in/5x115mm, offset 34-45, rim size 15in, front CB 70.3mm, rear CB 70.3mm, stud size 12x1.5.

Can I use them on the Tacoma that has a bolt pattern of 5x4.5in/5x114.3, offset 20-42, current rim size 14in, front CB 67.1mm, Rear CB 67.1mm, stud size 12x1.5?

First, I have to tell you that we only recommend direct fit parts. As far as what you described, they should bolt on; however, the tires will most likely rub the fenders.

I know that they will bolt on and they will clear the fenders, etc. My concern is with balancing, hub rings, etc. Would appreciate some specific advice rather than a generic answer.

Hi:
As far as specifics, you asked if they will fit. Yes, they will. As far as specifics regarding this question, I'm not sure what you are looking for. As mentioned in my original post, my only concern was the offset. That it may allow the tires to rub under certain conditions.

Is there something specific that you need me to determine for you?
