do you have a picture of the wheels? there are two types of LC 80 wheels, a.) with acorn shaped lug nuts, which those in you link would work(not too well). b.) with mag lug nuts, with a washer on the lug nut, which the ones in your link will not work.

if you have the later, just go you costco tire center, they do carry the washer type lug nuts, $2 a piece.

if you have the first, well, you would better be getting some ET style lug nuts from wheeler's. the problem is the 4runner lugs are not long enough for the acorn type lug nut to grab enough thread.

tc, they came off my buddy's 97 which had the acorn style nuts. I am currently using the lugs that came with my 4runner, the longer ones with washers. so i guess two questions: am i ok using my 4runner lugs with the washers and can i get the black acorn style ones from the link i posted and be ok? this is confusing!
