Steel wheel options?

There's no saving the steel wheels on my new-to-me '84. I may have a set of 60-Series wheels for them - will know for sure next week. If that falls through, I'll need to find another set... asap. The welds on the current wheels are flaking away. Plus, the tires are old.

Any suggestions for plain, cheap steel wheels? The plan is to have them powder coated either ivory white or gray and wrap'em with 33x10.50x15 KO2s.

Summit Racing sells a lot of wheels.

These are popular.

This might be what you want and you wouldn't have to powdercoat them.

thanks @arlindsay1992 ... I should've mentioned I'd scoured Summit and didn't see anything I liked. Those wagons have a CJ look... I'd rather find something either clearly Toyota or totally plain - like the O.E. wheels (which look like every other manufacturers's spare wheel).

This is as close as I've found. They show as far back as '86, and they're only 6" wide which I'm thinking it too narrow for a 10.50. 8' wide would be ideal... I think.

Ahh, didn't know that's what you were looking for. Not sure why they only go back to 1986. Measure your wheels and see if the backspacing is the same. Backspacing for IFS trucks is 3.75.

Searches for 1984 Pickup wheels only yield 6" wide options. I'm assuming/hoping there's another year of the Pickup/Tacoma/4Runner that shares the bolt pattern (6x5.5), is 7" or 8" wide with a backspacing in the 3.5"-3.75" range.

Looks like later - 1996-2002 4Runner and 1997-2004 Tacoma wheels might work

I got my steel wheels from a 60 series for $90. Still looking for a 5th for spare tire.

I ended up going with O.E. FJ40 steel wheels (powder coated to match the body) and hub caps.
