Show Off Your Steel Wheels

Hi! I though you steelies lovers could be interested to know about the "new" D windows steel wheels in 16x8" that will clear calipers without the need of spacers.

I don't want to double post so I just put the link to the complete thread here. I will mount them soon with new BFGs LT265/75R16 and add somes pictures.

Thanks!

 

What size tire?

 

Any lift? Looks really good

 

Yes, 2G TRD Pro up front / rear shocks and a Headstrong Off-Road 1.5” AAL with the overload removed. That means just about 2” up front and 1.5” out back. That’s with a 265/70-17 snow tire. I run a 265/75-16 KO2 for the other three seasons.

 

Figured I’d post here since wheel choice ended up being the hardest decision of the build, but lurking on this thread for about 6 months finally pulled the trigger on some steel wheels on a 2017 Tacoma SR 4x4.

I ended up going with 16” RTX Wheels off Amazon and 265/75R16 Toyo Open Country AT3s.

At the time of purchase RTX was the only new steel wheels available for immediate shipping. Road Ready was OOS and sourcing 16” Toyota spares was coming up close to the same price after prepping and painting.

Suspension was $100 Brand new Bilstein 4600 Shocks and front Coils off a 2020 TRD Pro DCSB, 1” spacer and 1.5” add a leaf all done in my garage. Lift gained almost exactly 2” front and back.

Thank you to everyone I PMed with questions and people posting images and specs of their trucks. TW was a big help in deciding on lift and wheel options.

 

Hi Folks,

Does anyone know if there are center cap options for the spare 16" steel wheels? I purchased some new ones from Rock Auto and plan to paint them silver, but I would also like to install a center cap to slightly dress them up.

Does anyone have any photos of the spare 16" steel wheels in silver on a white Tacoma? That is what I am going for.

Thanks,

Hunter

 

Does anyone have a good source for 4Runner/FJ Cruiser center caps? I just ordered a set of wheels off eBay and all the caps I find are $40+.

Someone in the thread mentioned re-pops and that would be fine for my purposes.

 

Can anyone ID which truck these steel wheels started on? Rim is marked:
J 16x7 JJDOT CMC6 02HM26
No oval
Thanks!

 

Selling my 16" tacoma spares wrapped in Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws 265/75/16 about halfway through their life. Wheels need a rattle can touch up. PM me if interested. In Kentucky. Cheapish.

 

I’ve got a 2015 PreRunner, currently on
265 70 R17s on 4Runner Trail wheels. Thinking about moving to 17 steelies though. I like the 15mm offset, and best I can tell 17-inch OEM FJ steels are 30. Any recommendations on something that may be closer to what I’ve got now?

 

I'm fairly sure that the FJ steelies are a 14mm offset, Its what I am running and it measures very close to the TRD wheels I had before which were 13mm (+/- a couple mm, I'm fuzzy on the specs) offset

 

I did it! Waiting on center caps to come in the mail.

 

finally got new shoes for it. 265/75/16 KO2's with toyota OEM steel rims. stock suspension and lift. base V6 4x4 SR model. also just mounted the CBI rack. still waiting on locking black lugs

 

looks great. Simple and clean. Where did you buy your OEM steelies? any issue with caliper clearance?

 

looks great and you have the center caps! where did you get them?

 

thanks, zero issues. it's the OEM spare wheel from toyota $144 each. exactly the same as the spare, so perfect fit.

 

Winter setup

 

do you have any more pics of them on the truck? looks great. You went with the 4runner spare? Did you need a spacer? and where did you get the center caps? thanks

 

Love these on my 2nd gen...
