I went and had to buy rims because I ordered my tires for 16 inch rims because I was told on here before 98 4runners had a bigger break package and ran 16 rims well come to find out I had 15 inch OEM rims... what could the reason be?

 

As far as I know, most came with 16"s, but some came w/ 15"s. The door jam tag on my '97 says the original tires on mine were 225/75R15, but it had the stock 16"s on it when I bought it back in '01. Don't know if they were changed by the original dealership as a sales option of if the door jam tag is just wrong.

 

some will have the bigger brakes and some wont

 

You think you'd check something like that before you bought tires.........

 

hurrr durrrr

 

Well I heard on this site that they were all 16's now i feel like a total idiot but its the size I wanted I ended up getting some MB wheels rims little to flashy for me Ill probably end up selling them and getting some steelies.

 

Paint 'em black if they're too flashy. I painted my stock 16" 6 spokes flat black last week and I think they look way better now.

 

go to 16 inch rims and then upgrade the brakes to the Tundra retrofit if you like/feel the need.

Even up to 99 some Runners came with 15 inch rims. Typically base or SR5 models I believe it would be.

 

Just sharing the knowledge for others...my 2001 SR5 came with 15" rims. 235/75/r15.
