Nice job, that looks badass. And if you are military, thanks for doing the job that not everyone is willing to do. JD

Looks badass. Nice job.

Yes they are, but are located about 3,000 miles to your left. You can probably find a set in your neighborhood, but I'm happy to talk if you are planning a road trip. JD

Thanks, that's very helpful. You should go buy those on ebay. Oh wait, you can't because those were already sold. Please go be helpful somewhere else.

I haven't sold them yet. So far, I haven't posted them anywhere but here. The going price on e-bay for the wheels alone is $300each, but you might have to ship them to get that price (or close to it). I think I could sell them here for about half that with no fuss, but that's more of a...

Your tires will wear unevenly and/or your handling will be crappy, depending on which way the alignment tech compromises the alignment settings. It won't be right at that height without UCA's. I did the LR UCAs and they act just like the OEM parts except the alignment is correct. JD

Not sure, but if it works, I'll be shopping for a turbocharger button.

Thanks. No rubbing, but the tires don't clear by much. I did have to do the wheel well liner mod to stop the rubbing at the front, but all is good now.

Toytec lift with TE wheels and 285s I don't think I ever posted after my suspension changes. Toytec Ultimate lift kit, with the 5100 adjustable coilovers in front, and the kit Bilsteins with 1 1/2" spacers in the rear. I first tried the kit springs in the rear, but it was a little higher than...

The Bilsteins are a big improvement over stock x-reas suspension. Ride, handling, everything is better. My lift height is about 2 1/2" front and 1 3/4" rear, plus a little for the larger tires. Its all perfect, as far as I'm concerned.

I went with TE wheels and 285 Bridgestones. No problems with the Konigs, just decided I wanted to go with the conservative look. JD

Make sure the bushing is aligned with the shock shaft and the opening, then put a floor jack under the bottom mount (with the shock attached) and raise it slowly until there are enough threads showing to get the nut started. I had the same issue and had to figure this one out to get it together.

As far as I can tell by doing some internet research, they will fit. There are other guys running 5th gen wheels on 3rd gen 4runners. You are welcome to try them on, as long as you don't mind the drive from Ky to CA.

It beats $900 for wheels you don't need. If we only bought what we needed, the entire aftermarket wheel business would be dead.

As far as I can tell, they should fit. The bolt pattern is the same and it looks like the backspacing is the same. Confirm it yourself, but it looks like a fit to me.
