Well, I finally got it at least presentable. In the near future will be a 1" BL, an alpine x001 deck, and bumpers. I just put the wheels and tires on and am planning on selling the oem sport wheels if anyone is interested... They will be in the classifieds section shortly, maybe even today. It all depends on how ambitious I'm feeling. I'm extremely happy with how it looks and drives except for the bad balance job the tire shop did. Anyway, let me know what you all think.









And before the wheels and tires

 

looks badass, how much do those rims cost, if you dont mind me asking?

 

That's way it's supposed to look. Good job!

 

Only fifty per wheel from summit racing, plus they ship for free

 

Time to update your signature

 

Looks sweet..........how do you like the bighorns? Same tires on plan on purchasing. Did you have any rubbing problems? What size are you running?

 

Those look great! Great price on the wheels. I will have to check out Summit for some 15x10's on my '81
x2 on the rubbing--any problems at full compression during a turn?

 

The bighorns are awesome. They ride ten times better than my old bfg at ko's and they were cheap! They are 255/85/16 and yes, a little rubbing but only when turning at compression. I'm planning on a 1" body lift so that should take care of some of that. They seriously soak up bumps a lot better than my old tires at the same psi so I'm happy.

 

k are they called the cragar soft 8 wheels?

because on summit racing they only have a 5 bolt pattern, that i can find.

 

never mind... i found like a gajillion wheels there

looks great i am too looking into the 255/85 era when my time comes. where did you find the maxxis buckshots everyplace around here says ill have to order them offline somewhere (if you did this from where?)

 

What are the specs on those wheels? Did you have to put backspacers on because of your bigger calipers?

 

That's badass looking, I really like those rims!

 

What shocks are you running?

 

I got mine off ebay. They were under 600 for all four tires which I thought was pretty reasonable.

On summit they say they only have 16x7 in our bolt pattern but when they came they were actually 8 inches wide. Oh, and the backspace is 4 inches.

I'm running the stock tundra shocks

 

Do you have the 4.56 or 4.3 gearing? I thought about doing with larger tires-but the 4runner already wheezes with stockers and 4.3 gearing. If there were a economical way to upgrade to 4.56, I would without losing the rear locker.

 

...you might have 4.10 gearing as well? It seems pretty uncommon to come from the factory with 4.56 gears, but, they did do it.

I got 4.30's and run 35's w/o problems.

 

I'm sure barbakos has factory 4.10 gearing on his '02 Sport...unless he regeared of course.

I'd like to up mine to 4.56s eventually...

 

Yeah, I have 4.10's. I definitely notice it too with the new tires.
