New fJ we did for a dealership here

3inch Full Suspension Rear soft ride springs, rear Shocks, front billet spacer not poly.... This ride will be for sale NEW at Patterson Toyotain W.F. Tx to take it for a test drive!!! This thing is awesome. Tires 33x12.50R18 On some Venti 18inch pearl Chrome wheels... This is one killer FJ R&R SPECIAL EDITION....











Not really hardcore setup for offroad, but for sure a cool looking ride... thanks for looking guys! I love this forum by the way, Im a dodge guy, but I think Im gonna pre-run out a tacoma.....

I agree, don't like bling wheels.

The 33s look good on it with the lift.
But...different wheels would look better.

Nothing wrong with shiny wheels, I digged the look of my alloys.
But I like the looks of my new black wheels better.
Those wheels though look more like they belong on a different type of vehicle.

And yes, a full size 285 and bigger can hang on the stock mount.

Dont care for those rims but they would be the ticket for crusing South Street here in Philly... (tho 24" or bigger would be the better)

We do that all the time at my dealership. FJ's, Taco's, Tundra's. But my boss also always gets chrome wheels for the lifted trucks. We've suggested black rims a couple times, but was told "chrome rims sell." Okay, whatever...

yea, guys I agree the black rims would have made it more Offroad looking, but we kinda got to do what sells for the dealership in certain cases, but I do believe we are building them an offroad edition FJ, so ill post pics, LOL if it was mine, I probably would have 37's with fenders chopped out, and total chaos all lover, with some of our custom touchs, hmmm if I could swing it, I would buy one! late guys!

Wheels would kill the deal for me. If it's for off road the theme needs to continue to the rollers.

As much as I hate the bling rims - I bet they DO sell...
Money Talks.

Most real 'core wheelers want to build stuff themselves.
If they had to pa shop rates for installs they could never afford the stuff.

So - I bet a full 'core wheeler wouldnt sell.

Any 'core wheeler who DID have the $$$$ to get a built rig woudl most likely get a FJ with the OEM options they wanted and then take the rig to a shop of their choice for the build up.
