I did a forum search and didn't find an answer, so I wanted to ask this question: Will I have any issues going from a stock 16" wheel on my 1998 4Runner SR5 4x4 to a 15" wheel? I want to get the Cragar Soft 8s, and the backspacing on the 16" isn't correct (I'd like 4").

I just ordered some new Raybestos rotors and there was a different part number for the stock 16" wheel, so I thought I'd better ask. Many thanks for any help.

 

Well you have to tune your searching skills just a bit. A 15' wheel is not going to fit over the calipers if you had a 16' wheel to start. Some may say you can grind the caliper and or wheel but it really isnt worth it.

 

Many thanks.

 

im having the same issues...my 4runner has the 12.5" rotors... i recently got a great deal on some 31" BFG mud terrians, they came with the stock steel
15" 4runner rims...ive read that i can either get wheel spacers? or grind the brake calipers to fit? no thread says what size spacer?..will a 1.5" spacer be enough to clear the rotors?
