4th Gen Tires/Wheels/Suspension Advice Needed

Can someone give me some advice about tires, rims, lift, spacers, etc. I have a Stock Silver 2007 4runner SR5 4WD V6 and I recently purchased some 16" black rims. They came with 285/75 tires but I don't know what I would need to upgrade in order to fit them. Also if anyone knows of a good roof rack to get that possibly has a light bar on it that would be great. Thanks

Check to see if those 16" rims will fit over your brakes.
My 2006 SE came with larger breaks but they were optional on other trim levels and they would not fit under anything smaller than the 17" rims.

For roof rack I'm happy with my Sherpa rack
 
I would do a trial fit of a front tire. You have a tire jack and lug wrench. I substitute 1/2" breaker bar with extension pipe for leverage with a deep socket.
Wheels have offset/back space and it does vary by model. Not sure why your purchase included spacers: perhaps for show or to prevent rubbing.

Yep, def check to see if those rims will fit. Sport Edition 4th gens came with bigger brakes.
