Depends... the IFS is 5 stud, not 6 stud.
Cheers,
Dan.

IFS wheels are alot easier and cheaper then the beam axle just due to supply and demand.

Check the PCD of the stud pattern and the size of the stud hole. 100 Seriers have a larger then standard stud thus might not fit.

Best idea is to take the vehicle with you when you go to look at them and trail fit them, even without a tyre(some places won't fit tyres to new rims for you to just look at). The rim may look great off the vehicle but not suit when it's on.

Last thing check the offset of the rim as this will have legal issues and may render the vehicle unroad worthy

The reason they are so cheap is that the factory is not producing many "beam Axle" cruisers anymore. Mainly IFS cruisers.
They both have the same stud pattern however the offset is different.

for emergency use and you had a trailer with the "cheep rims" I have been told you can substitute them to the IFS cruiser. They will extend beyond the guards.

With some flairs and a big lift probably not a bad look :twisted:
