Any word yet? Holding my breath, really want those wheels but don't want to pay a dealer $29.95 for a center cap. Why is it so hard to find wheels to fit an FJ?

He took care of it right away and email a ups tracking number. So it looks to be ok...I would say buy now!
Thanks,
Graeme:cheers:

I did :clap:

day late and a dollar short on my part. Missed the buy. I see only one for $55 on ebay right now.

Great deal!

EDIT: I'm an idiot. Didn't see Quantity = 16. Was going to buy but just have too many projects right now.

Just received the four rims with centercaps. Rims were shipped in four boxes, all double boxed and the centercaps were packed together in bubble wrap in the wheel well of one the wheels. Rims and centercaps look brand new. Couldn't be more pleased.

Mine are due tomorrow. Glad to see yours were so well shipped. Thanks for the tip Patch44

Mine arrived in perfect shape and are now mounted. Thanks again for the tip.

Out of curiosity what size tires did you put on?

Today my wife Shirley drove from Texas to MO. I begged her to stop at the wheel store that is advertising on ebay. It's a major operation in Rush Springs, OK. She bought five OEM FJ rims at the internet price. They look good and have brand new caps.

The business is legit!

cheers,

I put on Wranger MT R 305/70 r17s and they fit perfectly. I'm running a Donahoe front and rear with about 3 inches of lift. I'll be chopping the body mounts before my next Moab trip. No rub on dirt or around town.

They look great on your rig. I'm going the BFG route with the KMII's 285 70R 17 size. Do you think I might have to have a body chop with that size? Oh, I also will be putting OMU front and back for I think is a 2" lift.

I'm also going to mount the steelies with BFG 285 70R 17 TA/MT2's. :rocker: That is if I can find them! I'm looking... :worried:

cheers,

Great buy on the rims! I searched high and low for them until the forum guys mentioned the ebay sale.

Now I have the rims. It's the BFG TA/MT2's that are hard to find!

thanks

Did you get 4 or 5? Wondering about the combined shipping cost and haven't gotten a response from the seller.

I got 5 for a total of $380 after shipping was added. He packed them great and they arrived "like new" so I am a happy camper. Very good seller.

I'm not sure if you will or not. I would try them first. I got a great chop and my 305s don't rub there now, but they still very slightly touch the frame at full lock. I think a bit of wear will solve that.
