If you like the 4runner wheels--like we all do, then send them off to get widened and keep one set of wheels/ tires
OR

keep the 4r wheels for street and get some LC wheels (from me) PC them to be different and run M/Ts on them

I like the LTD wheels the best. I say keep the LTD's for street driving, and mount some muds on the Taco wheels and then go tear them up cause they are ugly.

that is the cheapest route if you want two sets of tires. Just don't forget some wheel spacers

I like the 5 star the best, but you can't beat free on those taco wheels.

How does that work? Do they cut them down the center, add an inch and weld the halves back together or something?

ive checked into having the LTD wheels widened, ive only looked at one place, and it was over $200 per wheel, the FZJ80s are about $500 for 4 of them. so ill be going with the FZJ80 wheels, and keeping the LTD wheels.

the fzj80s are cool too, but don't look at it as over $200 just to widen them, you end up with beadlocks too...

I recently put the 5-spoke Limited wheels on my truck and it improved the look dramatically. I had my Michelin LX MTS tires mounted on the Limited wheels for street driving and I will be mounting mud terrains on my old Tacoma-style 6-spokers. The nice thing about P-metric tires is they run narrower than non-metrics and therefore rim width is of lesser concern.

Ric, hit me a note if you want 80 wheels.

I don't live near Riverside, but OMF does nice work. Some times you have to pay to play.
