[Petoors]

Looks very nice!! I like it a lot!!

 

[TLC Norway]

Hot!

 

[brian]

I like.
I assume that they didn't come gray however?

 

[NEFJ60]

Classic look. I like the Eurospec mirrors as well. Very nice!

 

[Spike Strip]

Did you use spacers?

 

[blackphinga]

Did you use spacers?

No spacers needed.

 

[studawg]

Yeah man, Ive been rocking those same wheels, same size.

They come in gray primer, I just sprayed mine with Rustoleum Professional High Perf Enamel in Dark Machine Gray.

 

[Spike Strip]

Thanks for posting, BH -- Those look like the wheel to get if you want 16" steelies and no split rims.

 

[esoniat]

This is very close to what I'm looking for.
How close is the clearance to the tie rod end.
I keep reading 3.75 gives very little clearance.
Do you have any pictures from the inside.

No spacers needed.

Do you know if adding hub cap clips will allow the OEM FJ40 hubcaps to fit this wheel?

 

[Mace]

Inside pic of the TRE would be helpful.

A 15" rim gets a lot closer to the TRE than a 16" rim does (that 1/2" really helps).

I'll likely do a 17" rim in the same style for a project I'm considering.

Great looking rig with the wheels. What suspension setup do you have?

 

[Kmonty66]

Love that look!

 

[rrv333]

Great look

 

[SEAWOLF]

@B H Wondering what suspension you are in those photos? Thanks

 

[Rob Faucett]

They come primed grey. Powdercoat info is in the OP.

 

[umpqua]

Yeah, I'm pretty much liking that.

Hey @B H , what suspension system does your cruiser have? Thanks.

 

[jmccandless]

Does the 16" wheels give folks a broader tire choice compared to 15" wheels? Or, greater wheel width?

Or, is this primarily a visual preference?
