[QUOTE=Elton;50962215]15'' rims wont clear the brake caliper


My 4Runner had 15's from the factory. I just took em off and put my ivan stewarts for the summer. I wanna go back to the steelies for the winter b/c of all the salt they use here in the midwest. so-do you think thease will rub w/o lifting?

revive a thread-so did they not fit?

is that why you went to 255/70s? I just got a set of Ivan Stewart TRDs myself off craigslist Denver. Ready to bolt them up to the Runner.

Can't reveal the price- it would cause an epic mass suicide event.

Not all 99 4Runners had tall springs. Mine did not, maybe Yoda Pala's also?
