Simple: Will 285/75/16 s fit on factory 16" rims? That's it. Thanks
I don't know much about tires.

Yes but you might need more lift than your 1.5" spacers to clear them.

yes, they will fit on the wheels.

once on the wheels, the wheels will NOT fit on your 4runner. you will need some wheel spacers up front to get them to clear the upper a arms.

For what it's worth chuckd, there are no stupid questions, only people too stupid to ask them.

Thats what my mom always said when I was little.

The thing is, I'm considering buying this: https://www.yotatech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=61013

I haven't looked at it yet, but it seems to be exactly what I want. If he still has it. Then I can go to the fall colors run. The thing is, I don't like the wheels. I like my chrome ones. What I was thinking of doing would be switch his tires with mine, so I can keep my rims and have the better tires. Then sell my old truck with the rims from the new one.

PS thanks for the quick responses

Yeah, I'm trying to find a 4wd with a lift and locker in time to make it. If I can't I may at least try to find someone to ride with. Hopefully something will turn up

When your rims are scratched and bent from offroading you will not care what color they are, you will only care that they are holding the bead.

285/75/16s will fit on stock steel 16"x7" toyota rims.

yo man i can attest for allen. i was the one that bought the roof rack off that thing. the 4runner is EXACTLY as he describes. we each spent a few minutes checking out each others rigs and i definately think you should get his. sounds like what youre looking for, and hes a real nice guy. good luck!

They are growing on me. I doubt the chrome would last too long anyway in a battle against rocks. They really are pretty though. Maybe I could paint stegals black. I like the green truck black wheels thing. With darker windows though. And if I but your truck, what will you drive next month?
I'm still thinking about it though. The only thing stopping me at that price is the miles. I know for a yota 130k is nothing, but its 30% more than the one I have. I do want a locker though . . .

dont let the miles scare you on this rig. it doesn't use a drop of oil between changes. Its priced 2500 below blue book, and it has 2500 worth of mods.

as far as these rims being painted black.... that would be a sad day.

Info to Fall Colors Run? I'd love to go this time. So you're still planning on 'wheeling with your 4Runner still for sale?
