Thank you, thank you, she's finally at a stage I'm happy with.

I dunno why the 1st pic isn't working but you guys get the idea. BIG thanks to Andy who suggested the move to LExus wheels, and a REALLY BIG THANKS to Eric for having a set at the right time.

I'm an old man sitting here drinking his coffee planning out my day and trying to get awake...nothing else to do right now but to surf Toyota forums.

All I see are red Xs. But I did go to the link. Look good, even if you do now have rims like our resident bamachem.

Those look awsome. That is a really good look for a Runner. Never really like aftermarket rims. Factory ones even if they are not from specific vehicle look better in my opinion. Very Nice!

Is the Lexus the only vehicle that had this style/size rim? How about the Land Cruisers?

cruisers have the same wheel w/o the line down the middle of the spoke and the gray paint in the holes - except for the 40th anniversary 1997 cruiser wheels, they still didn't have the stripe down the spoke, but they did have the gray paint in the holes.

I have about 3.5" - 4" of lift. 2.5" of suspension and 1" in the body. Once I free up some more money, like next summer after this ordeal, I'll be making the move to the Tundra set-up but for now this works.

Thanks, I really much prefer the factory look, all I need to do is paint the center caps and the wheels will look new. I've always loved the idea of do'n mods that make the truck look like it should have come from the factory that way, hints why I think we all love Andy's rig w/ the color matching everything.

I dunno why all my pictures always do that, show for a minute then no longer work. Any ideas, it's just a webshots account?

Eccamberlin, jump on thator somebody from here better buy those RIGHT NOW. That is too good of a deal to watch sit there, I wish they had been available a few days ago when I searched E-bay before getting Eric's wheels, could have saved me ALOT of money. I expect to see a new thread w/ Lexus wheels on someones rig by the end of next week.

I looked at the pics of each and they look pretty straight. I just bought a T-15 and am putting it on this morning so don't think the wife would be real happy about spending another $300 for rims I don't need yet. My AT's are new and I think I will run these for a while then move up to 285 MT's. For me it will take the rims/tires a BL and I would want to do the sonoran steel brackets with shackle hangers to get the TJM up after the BL. So realistically it would be aroung $1500. Not yet but I am sure I will. Just like most people on here the Runner will never be "done".
Local
since you are on would it be possible to post up a pic of your rig with the 265/75 MT's?
