Just acquired this 1999 3rd Gen a couple of months ago. 150K miles and it is pretty clean, inside and out. Was going to put some All Terrain T/As on it and found the 16" tires were more than $200 more than the 17" tires! Found a set of 17" 2017 4Runner wheels on Craigslist for $150 and then put the appropriate tires on them for a net savings of about $75. I went with 265-70, C load rating. They ride better than my old tires and are quieter. I think they look pretty boss on the 99 Runner. The wheels had the center cap plastidipped black and I think it looks great. It was a two owner vehicle and the guy never mentioned to me that it was lifted, but it appears that it is lifted about 1.5" or so. It is definitely taller than my 2001 Tacoma TRD.
Hey guys, first post. This is my 97 4Runner Limited. Bought it Feb 21 up in CT and it's New York City street kept which is a bit of a challenge. I love it though, already done a bit of work but hoping to do a lot more.

I feel ya on street kept - my T4R sleeps on the City streets, too. It's rough out there...best of luck!!

Here’s an update for the front bumper and custom grill I did. Added a rigid industries 20” light bar. Still more work to do. My passenger side fender flare came off on the freeway but I recovered it. Needs to get repainted now. Waiting on the custom grill screen being water jet cut.
Recently got I a little fender bender (dumb accident) and need opinions on what could be wrong here. Hoping it’s just the bumper and no support damage. Hope some of you guys have a little better idea than myself. Also, if anyone here has a bumper, feel free to reach out.
Thanks you guys
Haven’t been on here long enough yet to make a thread. Thanks again
Check your bumper bar/crush cans. Looks like they they did their job.

Walmart had a stupid price for some 265/75R16 Cooper AT3's. $115 per tire shipped to my front door. Couldn't pass it up. $490 after taxes.
My S/T Maxx's were 6 years old and had 23k miles on them, sold them for $500. Threw the old 5 Stars back on I couldn't be happier!
