Wheel questions

Ok I found the wheels I want.


The only problem is that the don't seem to make them for the 4runner. I'm not sure if this is because they have the wrong bolt pattern or problems with the hubs. What is the bolt pattern on the 2nd gen? What is the correct offset for wheels on the 2nd gen? If they have the right bolt pattern could I machine them so the hub will fit? Also the wheels have OMF beadlocks. I understand the purpose of beadlocks, but how do they work? Also on OMF's site they say the beadlocks are 300/ea, so does that mean 300 per wheel? If so why so much?Thoughts, questions, ideas, or comments on the awesomeness of the wheels are appreciated.

Oh and in case anyone was wondering those are concept neeper monstra wheels. They are normally chrome but I'd either powder coat or gun coat them and get the bead locks

If it fits a 6 bolt chevy then it "should" fit your runner. I'm not sure about backspacing though.

Beadlocks are not usually for street. They can be very hard to balance. The reason is all those little bolts along the rim of the wheel. These clamp the tire to the wheel so it doesn't unseat at low pressures.
300 a wheel is A LOT for off road rims that will get banged up.
