70 series wheels

Looking to get some new wheels for my HJZ77. Looking for 16x7 or 16x8 but having trouble finding them with 3.5 inch back spacing. I don't really want to run spacers any ideas?

Where are you located?

You can have some custom wheels made, if in the US, Marsh Racing Wheels can make you a wheel in any size/width/offset for about $100 a piece.

I am currently using 16x7 tundra steelies with spacers and they work fine

In Canada I can find wheels with a 4.5 back spacing but not sure if I wanna run spacers

Yeah, 3.5" BS are tough to find, the Pacer Wagon Wheel were one of the few that come in a 3.75 BS with the Yota 6 bolt pattern. I don't know if they still make it though.

Yeah there hard to find for sure. I have 3 5/8 back spacing now with 285 75 16 now and when I go off road my rear tires hit the frame so ideal size I think would be go a 7 inch rim and some 255/85/16 tires. Maybe a good excuse to by new tires.

have you had a look at the pro comp range? They do a fair few different off set's, they may have what your after

spacers are fine - just make sure they are the right ones for your axle style, install them correctly and torque the nuts to factory settings - then check them a few km's later and occasionally when you have the wheels off and they will be fine.

now wait for the anti-spacer crew to come along....

What about some 16x8 80series rims

80 series wheels have I think about 4-41/2 inch back spacing
