Simple Look Expedition Steel Wheels

[SOCALFJ]

I'm researching wheels for my rig... and i'm trying to find a simple looking steel wheel. ... something that's OEM.. or looks OEM.. not shinny and bling bling... Im only running 32's,33's or 34's on this rig.. so i dont need a custom wheel made. Does anyone know of any type with the 93-97 FJ80 bolt pattern?

Yes. Toyota sells an OEM steel wheel for the 80-Series. PM cruiserdan for the best price you will find on these.

Thanks Garth, do you know of any pics online that show what they look like?

OEM steel wheel...

 

[SOCALFJ]

That's just the look im going for!

 

[bjowett]

There are many oem steel wheels from other Toyota vehicles that fit. I run 17" steel Tundra spare wheels on my rig, there are similar 16" units from 4-Runners and Tacos.

 

[SOCALFJ]

Bjowett, Do you have any pics with the Tundra wheels on your rig?

SOCALFJ,

I think I met you before, I bought the shell off your 4Runner, how's that project coming along?

 

[NorCalDoug]

I have these.

They're inexpensive -- around $50 to $60 each.

I like the OEM steel, but they're about twice the price.

Doug, what is the back space on that wheel? I like that look.

Thanks,

Vince

[SOCALFJ]

IIRC, same as OEM -- 4.5

16" -- it's the inexpensive version sold by America's/Discont Tire (www.tire.com). I think the brand is "Unique" -- it's a fairly common wheel design -- you should be able to find it pretty much anywhere.

After beating the crap out of my once shiny OEM alloys, I was looking for sometihng inexpensive to put the new tires on. Also the fact that I still have the 285/75s on the OEM wheels required that I get something else for the 315s.

 

[NorCalDoug]

I really like the look of your wheels.
Rather than cut/weld to change the backspacing, couldn't you have bolted some spacers on?

Here you go...
17 x 7.5" Tundra spare

16 x 7" Taco spare wheel with Michelin.

 

[bjowett]

Spacers will also work... easier, yup... I just prefer to have wheels with the offset I am after.

 

[cruiserdan]

OEM steel wheel...

That HAS to be the studliest wheel on the studliest 80 on the planet........

 

[Critter]

Just remember if you start looking at Tacoma rims and want a 16" you need to look at 2001 and later models. The 1995.5-2000 (1st and 2nd Generations) came with 15" wheels.

www.ttora.com would be a good place to check on those, they change rims over there more often than I change my underwear.

SOCALFJ, I was wondering why you had "SOCALXJ"'s truck in your avatar. Small world. This is Ary from JU and NAXJA ;p

Sold my Cherokee last year and got an 80.

Are all aftermarket rims hub centric as in OEM rims?
