$250 for the set + shipping. Anyone have the center caps they don't want? Hehe. Luckily I have a friend that works at a place that sells used wheels and hubcaps. As soon as my income tax money comes in I'll be getting a set of 265/75r16 BFG AT ko's to mount on them.

The guy listed them as off a Tacoma but I believe they are the wheels from the 2002 Limited 4Runner. I was the only bidder since it didn't list under 4Runners on the search.

I think that you are right. Those wheels never came on any Tacoma that I have ever seen. Nice find. That is a great price for any set of 4 alloy wheels.

I doubt the black plastic center caps I have right now will fit but maybe with a little dremel work I can get them on.

Yup, those are the stock wheels off of 02 Limited or Sport Edition. Stock caps for those wheels run about $20 a piece :O

Really like that shade of blue. I'm assuming you have the stock size tires. I bet it will look that much better with the 265/75r16

I'm missing two of my black center caps (dang thieves) if you'd like to sell a couple of yours let me know.

I will let you know. As soon as I get the wheels in I will take one to my buddy and deal on a set of center caps. If my centercaps work it would be great since I have black lug nuts and my AISINs are painted all black. I did cut my front center caps to fit the hubs.

ERC I just noticed that in one of your pictures you are missing a center cap and there is black poking out from under. Looks pretty good.

Heh.. yup. That was when I just picked it up from the dealer. 2 center caps were missing, among other things.

Well my Downey HD's showed up yesterday (finally!) so weather permitting tomorrow I'll have that done. The wheels and tires will be one of the last things to do on my checklist before I start considering the bigger mods I want: armor, locker, winch, etc.
