If you want'em take'em. I wouldn't off-road in them though. seems like a good deal 4 $500

rdgt4r · 02-09-2010, 02:51 AM

Their nice for the street and kinda look good. What do you plan on doing in your 4runner? off-roading is the probably the last thing i would do with them.

I hate to be the first party pooper, but personally, they look terrible. I think they would make your nice vehicle look much worse. Also, the tires look pretty worn down, which makes it even less of a good deal.

With bobbarker, they do not look real good and would mess up your ride. There is a Mitsubishi Eclipse where I live and it has rims very similar to these and they don't look all that good on that vehicle either. It all depends on your taste. I would prefer some rims that I can go off-road in like some of the nice Black Rims I have seen on some of the guys posts in these forums!

To Each their own.

If you like them and if you don't off road or have a 2WD 4R, go for it.

Here is my $0.02. They look cheap, they prolly are heavy and not well engineered. the Unsprung weight each corner will increase tremendously. Your Braking will be effected as well as the comfort of the ride, and your suspension (Shocks, springs/struts) will be working extra to compensate for the lo pro tires and the added dymamic weight.

Thats what I needed to hear guys, especially from audiqtr.

Will every 20" wheel throw my performance off like this?

I believe they will unless they are the Lemans/Racing bred Ultra Lightweight,/Forged wheels that allow the use of Giant Carbon Ceramic Rotors/8 piston calipers and enable extra cooling for the brakes as well as extra air for the Engine intake and cooling for the engine etc..

For everyday cars, Each vehicle will have an "Optimum" setting where you will get the Optimum of each category without sacrificing from the Road Dynamics/Comfort. IMO, for our cars, 18's are optimum. Most people go with 17's, because there are so many more choices in wheels/tires and it is easier to shop around for a better cost. However, if you don't offroad or race and enjoy the cosmetics of large wheels, by all means go for it. Just be aware of the effects.

why 20'' rims???? Those look really cheaply made. I think it would make your t4r look like a 16yr old kid drove it.

I don't like them....IMHO they don't go with the 4runner but it's your 4runner so..if u like them ...go ahead.
But if I was you ...I'll pass on those.

20" tires are expensive and anything more than 5-6 spokes just makes wheels more difficult to clean. Like the look though.

VNT · 02-09-2010, 04:27 PM

I'd pass too

Ari Gold · 02-09-2010, 06:33 PM

I wouldn't put those on my 4Runner even if they were free.
