rims that dont rub???

I have a 1992 toyota 4x4 x-cab that i wanted to put just plain black cheap rims on. My tire guy told me he only carried one rim that didn't hit the calipers for it. He also said most guys just grind it off ,but that they would not do that. So my question is wich brand rims are you guys putting on similiar trucks that wont rub. Thanks in advance

Just about any rim, 15" diameter or larger with 4.25-3.75 backspacing should fit with no rubbing on the caliper.
I wouldn't suggest any less than 3.75" backspacing unless you're prepared to do constant servicing on your wheel bearings.

^and paint them black.

what size tire? that will make a difference in the offset and width needed if you're going with a wide tire, like a 12.5"

Wabbitt) I did try searching .Found nothing on caliper rubbing or why. Thanks for your input

highonpottery ) yea i thought about just painting my stock ones black,but one of the rear ones have to be replaced cause its bent.So i thought I might as well buy new. Oh and the tires are 30x10-15 Thankyou for your help

So i dont know. Looks like i will just wait till i find a cheap stock one and paint up all 4 black
