Land Cruiser Wheels Installed

I bought some new wheels for the 4Runner last week and finally got them installed last night. These are 16x8 Toyota Land Cruiser factory alloy wheels. I got them from our wheel refinisher at work for $130 each. They're about $550 new from Toyota. I still need to get the center caps, but I'll do that next week.





While I was out today, I turn 160k.

I thought so when I bought them but they actually kicked the wheels out a touch. I'm happy about that because it keeps my front tire from rubbing now.

Nice looking 4Runner, especially the LC wheels! But I was wondering if your rack was a Surco?

I noticed at how low your rack sits and was wondering what type of mounting brackets were used? Reason is that I am trying to lower the height of my rack!

The LC wheel's backspacing is 4.5"...different than the OEM 4Runner wheels.

It's raining here today, but if it's not tomorrow, I'll go out and snap some pictures of the mounts for you.

Down the beach away from Mosquamit (or however you spell it). It's the only legal part of the beach that I know of. It's usually a quiet spot and a nice place to go during the off season.

Dude, what size tires are you running? The shot from the front looks killer!
What suspension setup are you running?
