    I'm needing some help with wheels. (xpost at gen1 forum, despite zero help there)

    I hate my stock wheels, since they seem impossible to get balanced, might be out of round, and the clear coat has long since die.

    ^THESE ARE MY CURRENT WHEELS. 15x7, and clear the caliper.
    (alloy 15x7 4runner style, that came stock on my 2000 trd tacoma)


    So, I found the thread that lists wheels that fit...

    90% of the wheels listed no longer exist, or manufactured/carried anymore... Its outdated and doesnt work anymore.
    I've been searching for about a week, cross referencing the list and getting progressively more upset with each passing day.

    HERE'S A LINK TO THE DAMNED OUTDATED CRAP WHEEL GUIDE:

    Whoever added the caveat about caliper clearance between years, deserves to get punched in the dick with a 9-Iron. Literally zero help, and honestly full of misinformation and idiocy.



    What I'm looking for: 15x8, 6 on 5.5, clear the calipers *without spacers*, prefer steel to aluminum, backspacing to stick out a bit from the fenders (running 31x10.5r15 hankook dynapro ATM, with a 3" lifted OME suspension kit), black (gloss or flat), and look good. (Not going UP to 16, because my tires have less than 10K on them, and I like 15" wheels)



    Anyone buy a set recently that worked?
    (Wheelers is my last resort, as I dont like the look)
