Do the icon rebounds not fit directly? will they need spacers?
I don’t think they’re hub centric last time I checked.

The only reason why an OEM would use spacers is for cost savings. For example, the 997 GT3 comes with spacers because Porsche wanted to make one wheel to fit both the wider RS and the regular body 911.

If you’re going aftermarket wheels, it’s your opportunity to get rid of them. No one with half a brain orders a set of HREs or Forgelines and specs for spacers.

There are so many cheap cast wheel options made for Toyotas now there’s really little to no reason to concede.

Same story for centering rings.
 
Also, keep your eye out for Nomad Wheels (www.nomadwheels.com), a new brand from the same group that owns Raceline. Nomad is targeting the Land Cruiser community specifically. You can see a few of their wheels on instagram @nomadwheel. They did a soft launch at Overland Expo. They're set to formally launch in the next week or two.

My Icons did not fit directly. I needed spacers to prevent the rear tires from rubbing the frame.
 
FN Wheels Six Shooter, 17 x 8 ET0, flow formed - in light gunmetal color, Gorilla brand small diameter ET-BLACK-CHROME cone seat lug nuts (came with).
These are quite light weight at 21.2 lbs each.
They were center bored (through) for the hub-centric direct Landcruiser fit (requested/done/delivered that way by FN)
Another similar one from FN, but ET-10(moves wheel outboard by 0.39"), is the Konig Countersteer TypeX.

tires play a very important role that needs to be understood "33 inches" in the tire code is the outside diameter; it is also 838.2 mm. 285mm is the tread width; in a 285/75 R16 tire, the sidewall height is 75% of that width. Adding the two sidewall heights and the 16″ rim diameter, we get the outside diameter. That's a total of 833.9mm. ( this is as an example ) I read an article from Automobible where everything is well described how to fit.
 
Just picked up a set of Raceline Ryno Forged beadlocks in 17x9. They are at powder coat, so more pics to come once I get them mounted. I'm replacing my older KMC beadlocks which have been solid!

Just got the wheels back from powder coat today. After a mad dash home and enlisting the help of Takumi beadlock pro @COYS, everything is mounted up and riding Lexus smooth. Love this wheel and tire combo

Anyone have pics of 17 in Icon Rebounds with 35’s?
 
Idk, seems like putting fake nails and eyelashes on your woman, doesn’t maker her look better, more like a hoe. You know, like a spoiler on a cavalier. :meh:
 
The Icon Rebounds are really cool. Wondering if anyone has pics on the Icon Compressions on an 80? I'm considering these with the cap spacers from Delta.
