Part # 1002-7866

See if these would work for you.

I ended up ordering these Eagle Alloys...3 months ago and they are still a no show on my doorstep.

@John Smith thanks for the info on the reversed rims. I also found out that mounting tires will be a problem. I am doing DIY beadlocks and therefore need to mount the tire from the front side of the wheel (street side) with a reversed rim this might be impossible.

@John McVicker I am going with steel wheels because of the DIY beadlocks.

Question I asked about wheel studs:

1" Trail Gear wheel spacers cover wheel studs?

 

[woytovich]

Putting this info here for my own reference... (and to solicit opinions)

3.75 BS:
Pro Comp Series 87 Rock Crawler - Gloss Black Steel Wheel 87-6883T
What are the chances that these would fit as-is without spacers? Maybe I should order one to test fit.....

4.25 BS:
Pro Comp Rock Crawler Series 51, 16x8 Wheel with 6 on 5.5 Bolt Pattern - Flat Black 51-6883F
These would need the 1" spacers

4.5" BS:
Pro Comp Rock Crawler Series 51, 15x8 Wheel with 6 on 5.5 Bolt Pattern - Black 51-5884
These with 1" or 1.25" spacerss

Those PC 87's fit my fj62 with stock brake calipers perfectly, no spacers, good clearance...all good. I did not have a tire mounted on it.
I really wanted black steelies, the reason I did not go with the 87s is my son really liked the black Am Eagle alloys and the 87s are pretty heavy. I compromised with the alloy, would still prefer to have steels though.

Ok... ordered the 87s...hope they fit!
Ordered on 4wd.com. applied 2 discount coupons to get the price down from 76.99 each to 53.01 each... Free shipping.

These in fact do fit the front of my FJ60. There is not much room to spare in clearing the caliper... But when I put it back on after the new wheel test fit I was surprised to see that the clearance on my stock 60 wheel is just about the same... I had never bothered to check.

Thanks @Skniper for the recommendation.

Thanks @Skniper for the recommendation.

Cool, glad to hear those worked. Yea I checked the clearance too, it's an odd place where you cant really see the wheel pass by the caliper....I put my pinkie finger in there I could barely squeeze it by the caliper. I was surprised the stock chrome wheel had virtually the same "pinkie finger feel".

Got any pics of 87s mounted up?

 

[woytovich]

Not mounted yet.

I couldn't get a pinky between the two in the stock or the 87. I'd guess about 1/8" at best.

The only clearance you need is that they don't contact each other. It's not like either of them should be moving if everything is tightened down. When I had the original wheels and TLC Monster calipers the were extremely close, like you could slide a couple sheets of paper between them. No issues.
