TRD Taco rims on CL

Not really. I see those around here for $200 or even less all the time.

Besides, although the bolt patterns work with 3rd Gens, the backspacing is way off. 3rd Gen's are at 4.625" and the 2nd Gen Tacomas (and 4th Gen 4Runners) are at 5.XXX", which means it will sit at least a half inch further into the body, shortening the track. You can tell just by looking at the face of the wheels, those Tacoma rims are basically flat. Now look at the 3rd Gen wheels. They've got more of a bowl shape to them.

To anyone considering these wheels, I would not do it personally.

I know all of this, Fonerunner told me about it, he bought his and ended up getting spidertrack 2" spacers. Ok, im sorry i thought $275 for a nice set of OEM rims was a good deal.
 
2" spacers, I would recommend even less. Why not get proper rims to begin with? Especially if 3rd Gen/1st Gen Tacoma OEM rims can be found for $100-200? I also find those 2nd Gen Tacoma rims to be one of the ugliest Toyota has produced. I much prefer 3rd Gen 4Runner rims (even on my Tacoma).
 
275 is high to me IMO. But if you like them I would buy them. 2" spacers are pretty damn big and would not like the long term damage on wheel bearings of running such a huge wheel spacer. But again its up to you!:cheers:

I'm not buying them, they arent the rims i want, i thought 275 was a good deal, i want the 01 5 stars.
 
They are 1.25" spidertrax spacers and they make the taco rims look good I think...of course thats just my opinion and you are all free to feel however you want. Having said that, my spacers and taco rims are coming off very soon so stay tuned.

Also, I paid more than that for my taco rims...so I guess I'm not all that smart according to the info I read here. Oh well!:happens::dammit:

There ya go, now those are a great set! Some for sale near me but 400 bucks, only because he thinks the tires are worth 250 alone and they are not. Son of a *****.
