Third gen 4Runner rims on first gen 4Runners?
Does anyone know off hand if the third generation (96-later) rims will fit on my 85 4runner? Is the center hole smaller on the newer models?

The IFS ('86-'95) trucks use a wheel with 4.75" backspacing from the factory:

The solid axle trucks use 3-3/8" backspacing:

And that lesser backspacing is needed for the inside of the wheel to clear the steering and brakes up front and the frame in the back, since the solid axle trucks have a 3" narrower axle than the later model trucks.
