Someone please tell me that these wheels will fit!!!

I really want to order the Eagle Alloy 186 in 15x8 -30 offset, for my 1992 Surf.
The store tomzwheels replied saying the wheels won't clear the callipers. I don't want to believe them because as far as I can tell others have used Eagle's on there 2nd Gen 4runners.
Thanks in advance!

yup here it is:
1864-5866 15x8 Super Finish 6 on 5.5 -30 mm 3 1/4 N/I 2100 lbs. 19 lbs.

3 1/4 back spacing.
I honestly can't find a reason why these shouldn't fit.

3.25" backspacing will make your rims stick out ALOT. Im running 33x12.50" tires on a 15x8" rim with 3.5" bs and they stick out almost 3" But they will clear..

thanks for the replies guys, I'm really hoping these wheels will fit!
I'm not worried about the wheels sticking out because I've got a widebody JDM Surf with the flares. Flares sitck out about 2 inches anyway.

And now you know why I'm getting new wheels and tires!
I've settled for Pro-Comp All Terrain 31/10.5x15
And yeah, I'm in Canada, BC

Actually, I like those rims. They're nothing I'd take for serious / dedicated off-roading but... you'll need the center caps on the rear for that.
BTW, that towing mirror on the fender is kind of cool, no?
1" wheel spacers, 2" body lift, 33's and that babe's ready to rock....
um... okay...
... I'll shut up ....
But personally, I'd worry about that mirrored tint on the rear door windows... change that out for bronzed and you'll be styling.

I'm kidding... really.

Yeah its a diesel and yeah it has the LSD tag on the rear diff.
I hope that stands for limited slip???
It currently has the pretty much a 2" suspension lift.
The tint is comin off soon, going to get limo for all rears.
That mirror you call towing mirror, I have no clue whats its really for, because it isn't adjustable for some odd reason, and it points down the side of the truck, I can only see the road paint, kinda helped me learn the RHD at first I guess.
thanks for the replies guys!

that big hanging thing is the a/c condensor crammed in there, it even has 2 electric fans on top. Very hard to access the motor with that thing in the way. It pissed me off a whole lot having to do the timing belt from up top.
