Just got a new 03 4Runner

Hello...I just got an 03 4Runner SR5 V6. It came with Enkei wheels. Does anyone have the same wheels ? I want to change the centercap, looks ugly(not really crazy about the whole wheel). I contacted Enkei and they wont help me because it came with the truck from the dealer.

That is a pricey option to not really like. How come you just didn't have the dealer delete the tire/wheel package and get what you really wanted aftermarket? Can't help with the Enkei question.

How come every Enkei wheel I see on a 4 Runner is different ?

I would go down to a Enkei dealer and see about getting caps you like. If you don't like the wheel, I would try e-bay <G> and then buy some you like.

A little Off Topic, but what's the history of the pic under your name?

I like momo's wheels better... The ones they had one a Sport here were REALLY neat.

bamachem and doink, I don't have a a picture of my 4Runner so I used that instead...

It "was" a 1993 Toyota Celica All-Trac Turbo (only a certain number imported each year, AWD Turbo, it flew.) I had a friend play around with it some and made it a little faster... I crashed it with like 37k miles on it :-( It's was sort of a ralley car.

That is what happens when you are doing WELL over 100mph and the road doesn't go straight anymore, I'da made it if the damn tires hadn't of come off the rims.

It WAS a really GREAT car, fun to drive.

Sorry for getting off subject, Vin.

After that little crash how much did the insurance raise your rates, and did it stay on your record long

Nice wheels. You have the same centercap.

Edge, I don't recall, I was 20 at the time... But, there were no medical bills for me or my rider, so we got off okay.

Vin, yours are 18" correct ? They really look a lot like my Limited's OEM 17's, style wise. You should stick with them, in the full context they look okay.

BTW: Is your driveway @ an incline or is your '03 raked ? It looks as though your front wheels really fill up the front well... But, the rears look like mine. How did you get pin stripes ? I haven't seen that either.

I told the dealer if they put a sticker on my truck I wouldn't sign for/accept it.

Believe me, they knew it was coming off. I took the license plate frame off in their parking lot and gave it back to them. I also started the process of peeling their logo sticker of in the parking lot. Then when I got home I broke out the hair dryer and took off the stripes.

16" Enkei's ???

I won't mention in public what I said to the dealer about putting a badge on my truck. They didn't.

I also pulled out my Leatherman tool and pitched the "dealer" plate frame in their lot.
