I was wanting to Buy new chrome rims. I was wondering if anyone can give me a recommendation. I have a 2001 3rd gen sport. I was thinkin 18's or 20's. I am a bit concerned about getting bad rims that could vibrate due to a bad fit. What do you think? any brands in particular? Sizes?

 

So,I take it you don't off road much but if you're 4wd then avoid anything over 17 inch unless it's the "bling" you want.

Sorry but big wheels on a 4wd is just dumb IMO and definetly is starting to be played out,spend your money on functional mods.

 

20's are small now, get 22" or more

 

I wouldn't go anything over 18's. The 3rd gen body doesn't look right with anything bigger. It's too skinny for anything over 20. To me it's like an explorer with 20's+ and it just doesn't look right.

Be it an escalade or navigator (wide and beefy), for sure 20's and up.

I'm running 16x8's which I think is the best of both worlds for me. I just wanted mine to still look beefy, yet flow.

 

what does your budget look like? i have 22's and i dread the day my tires wear out. at $300 per tire its not really a good idea. i would go with a 20" wheel, if i had to do it again, id probably do a 20" bbs, like what comes on the trd sequioa or the 20" enkei wheels that come on the double cabs tundras. thats just my opinion.

 

My budget is under 2k...

 

start looking for 20s... or a used set of 22s... make sure the wheels have the 108mm center bore, alot of the 6 lug chevys will have the same bolt pattern, but does not have a big bore hub center. good luck!

 

thanks mann i heard alot of peeps having problem with the bore being too large ill start looking for a 108mm bore

 

108mm bore is for the 2001 4runner sport right?

 

Get you a set of Boss ( by American Eagle ) Series 301 w/ Superfinish. These look good and you won't have to worry about them peeling like chrome wheels. They are perfect for someone with a budget. The warranty is fantastic- I know because I used to work for them. They come in both 20 and 22s. I have a set on my 03 dcab

 

do you got a pic of your ride with rims?

 

most of the newer toyota 6 lug trucks are 108mm bore. tacoma, sequoia, tundra and the 4runners all use the same bore. i have seen the boss wheel, imo they look pretty good and are price well also. but, i havent seen them in a 22" wheel.

 

Vato, what are those tires you have on your web site? Are those stock size tires, or are they larger?

 

I will post some pix ASAP. By the way, I was mistaken about the sizes; the 301s comes in 20 an 23s- not 22s.

 

hey i've got 20's wrapped in pirelli's....i've wanted to get 22's now or either lower my 4runner. Not sure on what to do, but i would go with 20's if yo'ure budget is under 2k....and you can get any chevy rims that are 6 lug, you just have to take them to a machine shop and have the center bore drilled out to 108mm and a depth of 3 inches. I used wheel spacers as well so i wouldn't have to drill further into the wheel and possibly mess up the structural integrity of the wheel....

 

Why do you need a depth of 3". When I was out measuring it looked like i only needed about 1/2 and in to make the wheel flush like its supposed to be. What did they charge you to drill them out as well?

 

it might have been a little shorter than 3" can't remember, they did it over a year ago, i'd have to take off one of my rims and measure it to be exact. but i used wheel spacers so i would have to drill out less of the rim. they charged me $250 for all four wheels.

 

Here's a pic of my truck.

 

You mean these Enkei 20's

 

How much are those 20s?
