Subject: 16" wheels on 2000 4x4
IP: Logged

Message:
I want to replace my currect 15x8s with a set of BLACK 16x8s. I like the look of the black wheels and the 16 should give me the ability to put a little bigger tire (265/75) on without modifications, other than a torsion lift and speedo adjustment.
Does anyone know where I can get an inexspensive set of wheels?
Is there anything else I should take into consideration?

You are a bit vage but why not try factory 16" alloys. Plenty of them on the sports in the salvage yards. A quick shot with the paint gun, clean the polished lib, you are there. The motorsport models came with black rims, but they are hard to find.

I did check ebay for the 16's and they are not inexpensive, about $100 wheel/used. called my local salvage yard and they said they only had 16x7's about $80 each. So I did a quick search on the internet for some black 16x8s but didnt have much luck.

I don't think you'll find much cheaper than that. You could always have the rims you already have powder coated or painted black for the look you want.

Lead, follow, or get out of the way

I am in central Illinois.

$400 including shipping. Look like their in good shape.

Thought about a diy job, I'll wait a while and see what turns up.
