Question Will Tundra wheels fit 4Runner?

I'm totally new to 4Runner and this forum and need some advice and info.

After having seen the new 2003 4Runners, I decided to snag one of the remaining 2002s. While waiting a week or two to take delivery, Im thinking about which wheels.

It started with two 4Runner options...the Sport or the other 5 spoke (previously used on Sport). In the last 24 hours I've become aware of the 5 (split) spoke wheel available on Tundra.

Q1: Does anyone know if the Tundra (17") wheel will work on the 4Runner?

Q2: Which wheel do you people prefer?

Thanks

I'm not as "all knowing" as most people I have encountered in this forum so I will stray away from the Tundra wheels question. But I will offer up my personal prefernce of wheels. I really really like the wheels on the 2K2 Runners(the 5 spokers). I wish that the couple that had purchased my Runner from the factory would have stuck w/ the base wheels(5 spoke) over the "premium wheels" Toyota was offering at the time. So I would stick with the wheels that you already have on there now. If you do decided to go w/ the Tundra wheels post some pics. I would be very interested on seeing how they would look on a 4Runner.

-Welcome to the board and the woulderful world of Toyota, and 4Runners more specifiacally, they are in my opinion the greatest trucks/SUV's out there today.

Welcome to the board!

Personally, I prefer the stock 4Runner wheels over the Seq wheels.

I wanted something a little different to set mine apart from all the others in the area and went with these:

Welcome aboard. Not a hard choice when you see what the '03 Runner has become eh? My friend here has the Tundra wheels on his Runner. They look different, not what I would like, but everyone has different tastes. They come stock on Tacoma's now too. I know those wheels stump...we call 'em the 'Plumeria' (flower) style. Maybe put a ad out to swap 'premium' wheels for stock Toy ones? Who knows...you might get lucky.

These are what came on 96-98's. These are one of my favorites for stock 4Runner rims:

I'm too new at this to be able to identify your choices from your words.

Please identify as:
1) 2002 Sport/Limited
2) 2002 option on base SR5

They are both 5 spoke.

Thanks for bearing with me.

Newby launch problems.

They will fit (the 16x7" inch rim, the new 17's I don't know yet as no dealer has them in stock yet). And of course...welcome aboard!

Okay my Favortie ones are the base SR5 wheels that Jason has posted above. I wish that I could find someone who wants to get rid of there's so I could get rid of my Eniki wheels that were supposedly "Preium wheels". The base model wheels are my favs. but I really don't have anything against the SR5 Sport models either. It more or less is going to come down to a personal prefernce. Sorry I know that is not what you want to hear, but you'll find out that no one here is really going to tell you "Do this" or "Don't do that", we all tell what we prefer and then it all boils down to YOU, the person who has to dish out the cash for whatever mod.. I think go with the sport wheels, every 4Runner has the stock wheels not that many have the Sport wheels, sets you a little away from the pack. Good Luck.

I actually have those rims that Jason B posted. When I bought my '99 I did not like the stock rims it came with so I had it exchanged with these rims which was on a different '99 4Runner.
I am leaning on the Axis Regulator (with Black Trim)..if anyone can tell me where to get a good deal on those, I might just sell my rims
