For the rims if you have a 16in wheel on the 4runner, which you probably due, as it is a limited, then the 15's will have clearance issues with the calipers.

Dig the color! The black rims would look really nice on it as well.

The 15" wheels may have a hard time clearing the calipers. Most 4runners (as it seems) came with a 16" wheel option and larger disk brakes up front...

There are ways of clearing the 15" rims. I have heard of people griding down the outside of the calipers, but, never actually seen pictures of it or anyone doing it recently.

*edit* - Oh and, sell the Ford and buy some new rims with the money... hehehe!!

I like how your bumpers are color matched!

I have the same color, kinda want to steal your bumpers!

Stock Limiteds don't look right with black steelies anyway;it's like a downgrade.

there should be a switch on your dashboard, just the left of the steering wheel.
