    Sorry the ad is generic. I have a 2d gen. I know 15's won't clear the calipers, so would it work with spacers? I'm installing a 3" lift this weekend if that helps.

    I know they're rough, but if I can make them work I'll clean them up. Thoughts?

    You wanna put $5 wheels on a $25,000 truck? Are you nuts?
    Stay with stock wheels. Best fit and best quality.

    Yea I want steelies. Mostly because I don't want to mess up the stockers on the trail. If they do the job, what's the price matter?

    I've thought about fj's, but these with tires would save a lot of money.

    So would it be a pain in the ass to fit them?

    I think Chevy 6 lug wheels can work, but being 15" I'm not 100% sure. I'd doubt it.

    I recall someone running 15's with spacers with some success, but I could be mistaken. Anyone know if it's feasible?
