These new aluminium "steelie" wheels from the fjcompany are pretty sweet! (3 Viewers)

Let me know if you have any questions.

Your website says "Backspacing / ET: 0.0"
Is that zero "Offset" or zero "Backspace"?

 

[N919HJ]

i think it’s 0 offset. They told me that the wheels were the same spec as the oem wheel except for being 16”.

Ok ordered!!
I’ll be selling my brand new 15” powder coated steelies w tires if anyone’s interested!

Hey, my wheels were just delivered earlier this week, and they should be all mounted up by this Saturday.
I didn't know about the hat deal, can I also forward my invoice for a hat?
I just mention my forum name?

Thanks!

They look great! Would love to know what lift you have on board and if you moved the rear axle aft to get that nice centered look.

It is an HFS lift and I added bilsteins. Did not have to center axle

 

[mrldcty]

Here is how mine look... EMU lift and no centering of rear axle.

HFS designs their rear springs to center the axle. Also to correct cruiser lean.

I bought a HFS 4" Lift Kit, What "Part Number" Bilsteins did you get??

Ok maybe that’s why some are going to 16” I wonder if a 16” w a 255/85 would ride/ steer better than my 33/10.5/15?

Here is a "general" FYI, A 31" tyre is a bit smaller than a 33" tyre. SOME "brands" of tyres, in the same sizes, will differ in overall height. Don't EVEN talk about "low profile" tyres. Simple rule, Take a tape measure with you when shopping for tyres.

Just purchased these wheels for my '70 and am curious how you like your tires and whether you had to do anything to your rear tire mount? I have a CCOT 4" lift I'm installing as well. Love the look of your 40!

@DougCoMo …..your are going to be happy.

Who is going to reproduce the mid-school hubcaps?

I had to add the 4 plus tire carrier as I was concerned about the extra weight on the body

What do you mean by Mid school?

Is Toyota going to keep receiving or making the '68 to '81 (mid school) hubcaps?

I'm thinking about using closed lug nuts and just leaving the wheel clips as ornament. Wait, they have to rust out first.
