Sorry, I know these questions are probably second nature to you all. Looking to up mine to all your standards!!

Tundra brake calipers are larger than 4Runner calipers, and so can have problems clearing stock (15" or 16") 4Runner wheels if you upgrade to Tundra brakes. But if the GX470 wheels are 16", then you shouldn't have any issues clearing the standard 4Runner brakes.
As far as the lug nuts are concerned, take a look at the pictures posted above showing the OEM style lugs. As long as that is the style on your 4Runner, then you don't need to worry about the lug nuts. If yours don't look like the OEM lugs, then they probably won't fit the GX470 wheels.
