The latest set of Toyota wheels I'm using on my SWB. These came off a mid-80's 4Runner, IIRC. I've run 16" Tacoma steel wheels, 15" Gen 2 alloys, 15" Gen 1 alloys (the "before" pics), and now these wheels. The hub opening is JUST large enough to fit on the front. Sixteenth of an inch smaller, and they wouldn't work (the "after" pics). I wiped them down with some paint thinner on a scotch brite pad, then painted them with some bedliner coating (Rustoleum brand, not as "lumpy" as Herculiner or some of the other brands out there). Had to change lug nuts as well, because the Gen 1 alloys had acorns, and these 4Runner wheels needed "mag" type or "barrel" style lug nuts.

Not yet...I was thinking of putting them on the local Craig's List (Hampton Roads). If you're interested, let me know!
