I would like to buy a set of the 17" 5 spoke alloys that are commonly equiped on the 4th gen 4runners. I belive both generations use 6 X 139 bolt pattern. I don't know about back spacing or hub diameter.

Any body know if these will fit or not?


Thanks in advance

Ok, I have determined that they will fit as in physically bolt up. IU am not sure how the offset compares.

Does any body have pics of MK4 wheels on a MK3?

I do not know if this will help but I bought take-off 16" steel rims off of a 2003 4Runner for my 2002. I never measured the offset, but in eye balling it, it looks the same.

I am pretty sure they will fit. Not positive about this but I think the backspacing is a little different but will still fit just fine.

I have the sequoia wheels on my 4runner. those have 5" of backspacing.... i assmue that the 4th gen wheels have a similar backspacing

I am going the opposite way: putting 3rd gen wheels on a 4th gen. I started a thread that lists the offset differences (https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f117/tacoma-16x7-alloys-4th-gen-4runner-58433/). In a nutshell, the 4th gen has 30mm offset and the 3rd gen has 15mm offset. So for you, the 4th gen wheels would sit more inward than your 3rd gen wheels. A few 3rd gen guys have here have done what you are doing.

If you're interrested in buying a set of 5 wheels with 14k miles on Michilin XTerrain tires, I have a set for sale... PM me!

slight clarification... I'm using 2001-2004 Tacoma wheels, which I believe are the same offset as the 3rd gen 4runners. Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong!

Thanks for all the information everybody.

Now to find a deal on 4th gen wheels.

Found another thread with some pics of this very thing. 4x4rnr was right about the offset, the 4th gen will sit in compared to my 3rd gen wheels.

Here are a few pics of the new wheels and tires. At first I thought it looked kind of funny, I am getting used to it now after it has been a few days.
