Who besides ARE makes these wheels?

I bought my 4Runner a little over a year ago now and the previous owner (unknown to me) already had these wheels on the truck with BFG A/T's 31X10.50. American Racing makes them in a polished version but mine are just a painted silver. Also I don't think they are the right size for the truck as I can't fit normal lugs on it. and I have to use a really thin walled socket to get them off. Seems the hole is too small. I really like the look on it but I know I NEED to get wheels that are actually made to fit the truck. If anyone has seen these somewhere let me know. The first pic is the one from American Racing that's polished, the second is the one currently on my rig.

American Racing made the ones you have. The painted silver is a very old finish, or the guy could have painted them. As to your rims being the right ones, they are. The lug hole is small, but if you use a spline lug nut you will not have any issues. Most aluminum aftermarket rims made now you need to run a spline lug nut. If you want look at my sig and call me tomorrow at the store. I can ship you out a set and you will be set.
