Weekend Project DONE! (PICS)
Finally, I am done! Just had the wheels and tires installed yesterday. I took my rig on the freeway and took it up to 95 miles per hour and it rides smooooooth. I read on someone’s post that they experienced some shaking with the steel rims, but no issues here. The rims are 16X8 Rock Crawler Series 97 and the tires are Maxxis Big Horns 265/75/16. I bought the tires from Tire Central in San Gabriel for $525 installed! That is the cash price, they will charge tax if you pay by credit card. If you live in the Los Angeles area or in Orange County give them a call, I shopped around and they are the cheapest. I gotta admit, I love the way my rig looks…I’m in love with my 4Runner all over again.

Nice. I've been thinking of the same type of wheels. I had also heard that steelies would shake. Good to hear that they don't. I wouldn't see why they would. The base model 4runner came with steel rims.

Thanks for all the compliments guys, I want to thank all the people on this board and Steve at Sonoran Steel for helping me mod my rig the right way. All of your contributions to this board are invaluable, especially to people like me.

The road noise is not too bad when you have the windows rolled up. I've heard much worse.
