Black Rim suggestions for a Gen 2

I've seen some great black rims out there....I'm looking for something in a black 17" rim size. I'm looking at Nitto Grappler G2's or Toyo AT2's. I'm looking at the 285/70/17's. I'm interested in hearing what black rims people are rolling with and what backspacing they had. From what I understand, spacers aren't that great for the truck, so hopefully there is a rim that wouldn't require it for that size.

Thanks in advance.

 

Stealth Custom Series SR8 wheels are hub centric, 4.5" backspace & -12MM offset. I have 16" but they also come in 17". Great looking wheel I've had many complements.

 

Those are some great looking rims! Ill have to look into those.

 

I just got some fuel hostage. 17x9 with -12 offset. I love them. Every truck or jeep I've seen around where I live have the xd rims so I wanted something different

 

Are you running 285/70/17's? I'm assuming just the normal rubbing unless you did some trimming?

 

Just to give you a different option...
I have 15" MT Classic III rims with 33/12.5/15 tires. I personally like the look of smaller rims with more rubber. Makes it look more "offroady" to me. AND you can save literally hundreds of dollars on the rim/tire setup. Both of them will be cheaper. Idk just throwing it out there for ya!

 

I'm running 275/70/17. No rubbing but also got 3 inch lift on it.

 

Except a 15" won't clear the calipers on a 2nd gen. Some 16s do some don't. I have procomp series 87 16". I really like them. But they are HEAVY and not real flashy. But I love them.

 

Oops.... Sorry. Ignore me haha. I knew I should have kept my replies to only first gen forums....

 

I wasn't trying to b a dick, so I apologize if you took it that way. But you have a 1st gen so who cares. Haha nah jk. I agree with everything you said. But was just informing that I'm pretty sure 15s won't fit a 2nd gen. My 16s are very close.

 

No I know i didn't think you were being a dick man haha. It's all good. And my first gen looks better than any 2nd out there (just kidding I want a 2nd gen)

 

Black Rock- Yuma's 17"
Nitto Terra Grappler

 

The Yuma's look nice. I was going to order the Stealth SR8's but they are out of stock right now which sucks. Also leaning towards the Cooper AT3's.......looks like they get the job done for what I need.

 

There are black Toyota OEM Baja alloy wheels available from a member here on TW, that would guarantee a perfect fit, but are 16".

The only thing with those wheels is (I believe) there are 16x7's or 7.5. Although an aftermarket wheel will fit on it, generally they aren't rated legally for the 285/70/17 (or 16's in this case).

 

here is Mickey Thompson Sidebiter II 17x9 with 285/70R17.... fits with no ring needed. I had to get them road force balanced but once that was done they are a good ride.

 

Looks like you have a 3" lift put in? If so what lift did you go with

 

I have a 2.5/1.5 level kit. Nothing special.... it rubbed slightly on the mud flaps... going to re-install them prior to winter... and rubbed pretty good on the front wheel well liner. I just cut out the bottom of the wheel well, pulled the flap toward the fog lights and zip tied it to get it out of the way. I don't have any rubbing and the ride is pretty good. I just drove my wife's stock 4-runner and it reminds me that the truck is a bit harsher now but that's ok, its better to look good than to feel good....

EDIT: I should note it only rubbed on 3/4 turn. Now it does not rub.

I modded my tailgate with sheet metal and I have a camper shell on. My truck already seems level because of the weight. Because of this I need to raise up the front and back a full 3" together.

 

Anybody know which rims these are? Saw this a while ago on a jeep and thought it looked badass.
