I put up an ad on my local craigslist site for these wheels: Toyota OEM 16" Split 3-Spoke Chrome Wheels - $300 Sorry for the link, but it saves pushing more pics to the site here. Hope you don't mind going over there to check out all the pics. Please let me know if you're interested. /\/\

Yeah, actually I did, and perhaps something like this may have been covered in one of the dozens of pages of threads that came up with each of the searches I punched in, but as I poked through various threads that I thought may be related I simply couldn't find anything specific like the subject...

My son is graduating from high school and he really wants 15" rims on our '97 Limited. However, I was told by a parts tech at Toyota just now that the Limited specifically had 16" discs, so 15" wheels will not work. Really? The truck is at Al & Ed's right now, so I had the fellow who's doing...

Hi. :) Yep. At least Twitter isn't part of the mix... - shud

Hi. I'm dad (to T4RWILL). I didn't forget my account -- just told him to get his own d*****d account. :hello: Pics of his truck are under my account, but I know he will be shooting more of his own... - shud

^^ Chrome. When buying used, ya kinda gotta go with the flow: These wheels were on it, so that's what we got. I really know nothing about what's more 'standard' but these are certainly not Toyota wheels (no logoing on them at all). - shud

^^ This is a 2WD rev. We were considering a 4WD, but this beauty came along, and I just hadda go for it! I see you're in SC. I was born there. Lived at 244 Sheldon Avenue!! - shud

My 'new' '97 Limited: - shud

We got one! I've been through some wily times since I last posted to this intro thread (Craigslist can be, um... weird... to deal with). In the end, I found a dealer not too too far away from my location with an awesome black '97 Limited that was through the roof -- this truck is amazing...

This thread cracks me up (literally and figuratively) because drifffter33 just joined an MTB forum that I regular (socaltrailriders.org), and so I said hello to him. He asked if any of us were T4R folks, so then I came over here and joined on. This was only a couple of days ago! Now you gone...

Looks like it! Now, it's just a process of finding the right one. Thanks for the links. I've seen several of those on CL, but let me address each... 4 Runner/Rock Crawler --> My wife won't abide anything she has to climb up into. No rock crawlers for us, I'm afraid. This is not really to...

My son and I have been looking on CL and found one we are going to look at this weekend. It's a RED '96 4 banger 5-speed manual 2WD for an asking price of $5,300 OBO. I've run the numbers a bit (at kbb.com) and his price is a bit high, but he's added a whomping sound system with subs in the...

I seeeeeee... the old cart before the horse trick! I'll keep my posts to a minimum, that's for sure. Gotta find a vehicle first! I've put into play things I have learned here already! All good stuff -- trying to find the right thing at the right price. Can be a difficult trek, but can also...

^^^ Thanks for those answers t4r4life. Helpful to know. Over the past few few weeks I've already been scoping CL and finding pre-96 T4Rs with a lot of miles down in my range, but haven't really found '96 and later. Gotta keep my eyes peeled, I guess. Because I am in the L.A. market, which is...

Just an enormous amount of info all in one place, 4-Ripcord. Thanks very much for all the hard work. ABOUT ME: I'm new here; I'm looking for a 4R -- probably '96; probably a very early 3rd Gen (I guess); hope to find one for $3-5k. Is that doable, or am I asking for trouble?... Thanks...
