3rd gen Aftermarket wheel thread

That's a nice looking setup...goes well with the color of your truck!

Thanks a lot, I debated between black and graphite for awhile, but really thought these would look sharp. Bought mine in 2004 and can't seem to find another ride I like more.....so I upgraded and feel like its a new car again!!

I got my Level 8 MK6s installed last week with 265/75R16 Bridgestone Revo 2s and like it a lot. For some reason I get just a tad of rubbing on the back of the driver side front. ONLY the driver side, not the passenger. I'm gonna put a 2" lift on mine to fix that.

I'll post pics later, but it looks great.

Might as well add mine even though I stumbled onto this post because I am looking for new wheels. Not sure of the backspacing on these; they came with the truck. The 231mm TBU fits fine in there with no spacers. Not really a fan of the polished aluminum so I am looking for something new, but I have wheeled them quite a bit and the have held up pretty well. Oh and a took off the center caps they came with.

Up close so you can see the 231mm calipers and spacing.

Good luck trying to find the 8069s..I've been calling and hunting on the Internet all morning with no luck...I wish procomp would bring them back!

Although this thread's vibe seems to suggest there ARE some somewhere...

I'm looking for them as well. Let me know if you find more than 4 somewhere!

In the future I'd like to get some new rims that are actually black, to match the fact that my 2002 4runner SR5 is black itself. What do a majority of you guys do? Put the tires on yourself or go to a tire place? I've never tried to put a tire on a rim, and I imagine it's quite a *****. Also, I'll be moving to NY, any decent all year round tires/ good for when it snows during the winter?(Seeing as there are blizzards every other day there atm..)

Thanks!

Great Thread btw

I would go to a tire shop. Mounting and balancing usually will come with the price of a set of tires. And there are some great sets of tires for all-seasons. The BFG All-Terrains and Goodyear Duratracs are two good options.

 

[sportrunner2001]

I have the level 8 MK6 in 16" with -10 BS or maybe -8 i don't remember for sure and they're on 265/75/16 duratracs.
[MENTION=106174]Amirocassar[/MENTION] I bought my rims off of discount tire direct and had them put on at my local goodyear shop. I wouldn't want to put them on myself it seems like it would be a real pain. and for snow I'd get duratracs but thats just my personal preference, bfg at's and grabber at2's are good in the snow also if you don't want something so aggressive

Here's mine:


yes, it is from my instagram haha

I'm definitely loving all of these ideas! I want black wheels so bad for my black 97 limited. Is there any issue with durability with any of these aftermarket wheels? I see some huge price variance, and I'd love to get into something for under $100 each, but I don't know if that means they're going to fold on me if I'm doing some light to moderate wheeling.

Thanks!

Also, WTF is going on in this picture!? Did no one else notice a puppy being tossed out of the car? There has to be a great story here!

^wheels weren't movin, and no chinese food shops in sight, so i bet puppy is fine.... :whip2:

Either he is being trained to be a spotter, or he started whizzing on the guy's lap!
