New 4Y $2450+ freight. Holy crap... check around, i've seen them for nearly half that! You'd be far better off going for a 3L engine or even a 2LT. I checked that website you quoted...wow expensive.

Landcruiser Offset = Zero
Example: 80 Series
Steel 16x8 is 4.25" Backspace
Alloy 16x8 is 4.5" Backspace

Landcruiser Backspace = 3.5"
So the back of the Rim does'nt touch the Drag Link Tie Rod Ends. - Like on a 40.
