I am selling my stock OEM 17" 6 lug wheels taken off of my 2005 Toyota 4Runner Sport. They are in very good shape with only a few minor blemishes (shown in images reasonably well). I bought new wheels and intended to use these as winter wheels but they are too nice for 'beaters'. I had the...

Front Froze Last Week I have an 05 Sport V8 with 49k miles on it. My front left caliper froze last week. It went from braking fine to grinding relatively quickly. It cost me a new caliper, 2 new discs and new pads. I just assumed that is an older vehicle and sh*t happens. BTW, I love my T4R...

Thanks for all of the replies and great info. I didn't mention it but I do have, what I think, considerable surface rust already. I want to try to keep it from shortening the life of rig. Thanks again, Jeff

I read a lot of opinions on the value of RP and UC on used vehicles. Generally everyone says it is a waste of money and not worth it. This is my 3rd T4R and the previous two had rust issues that made me get rid of them earlier than I wanted. They both had 110k and 145k miles each but the...

FYI- last week I asked if anyone had an opinion on 4WP.com and wheels that I wanted to buy. The T4R forum response was positive overall which is was not what I found out when I searched via Google. Truthfully the web response was ugly but the reality is that angry customers are more vocal than...

I have stock size tires, 265/65 17"~The wheels are ATX Ledge's 17" Jeff

I bought ATX Ledge wheels that have an offset of zero. The stock wheels have an offset of 30mm. Is it safe to assume that the new wheels will only extrude out from the hub an additional 1.2" (30mm approx.) compared to stock? I sort of recall my 2nd and 3rd Gen 4Runners wheels extending out past...

Thanks Thanks for the feedback. I bought the wheels last night from 4WP.com. I will let you know how it goes and post pics when installed. Jeff

Hi all. I have an 05 T4R Sport V8 (which means I cry every time I fill it up with gas), which is my 3rd 4Runner. 2 questions: Does anyone have pictures of the ATX Ledge/Black on any 4th Gen 4Runner? I searched but I could not find any images. I am getting the wheels either way, I am just...

I do not have a SAT button or a preinstalled antenna. I might do the install method at some point but the current system will work for a while. Thanks a lot for the replies. Jeff

I have the 05 Sport with the JBL stereo system. I have a Sirius radio that plugs into the lighter and and attaches to the windshield. Is it possible to add a Sirius radio to the in-dash JBL unit? I heard, or read, that you could possibly add a 'chip' or some how add the Sirius unit to the...
