    Thanks guys. The mod bug got me already:D Picked up some used 17" 4Runner wheels not too long ago and had them powder coated flat black. Also bought some Motorsport-Tech Bora 1.25" spacers along with 265/70/17 Duratracs. The wheels and tires are already mounted and balanced. Debating on installing them today or waiting till I install the 5100 preloads :)

    What do you guys think?

    Okay...couldn't wait. While the plastidip on the emblems were curing, I went ahead and bolted on the spacers and wheels. Had to remove the front mudflaps for the tires to clear. Besides that, perfect fit. Hope you guys like cuz I sure do :)

    So did going from a 16'' stock to 17'' mess with your speedometer much?

    The wheel diameter will not change a thing; the tire size is what affects the speedometer. The new tire overall diameter is about an inch taller than the stockers. From what I've read here on TW, the 265/70/17 ~32" tire actually corrects the speedometer.
