    I found a set of new 2017 take offs for a decent price. What issues will I have putting them on my 96? They are 17 inch. I figure the backspacing is different, bit the center hole looks to be smaller, too. I have just seen pictures of them from the ad.

    if you are 6-bolt 4wd/Pre then they will bolt right up with no issues. They are, however, larger diameter tires than what came stock on your '96 so you will notice a little more sluggishness when driving. make sure you get the lug nuts as well, they need Mag style and not acorn

    Thanks for the info. I know they are larger diameter wheels. I can adjust tire size so the outer diameter and width is close to the stock 31-10.50 tires. I've read that the back spacing is different and will require spacers. I was trying to verify that and the center hole diameter before I travelled 4 hr round trip to get them.
