Where to buy hub centric hilux rims ?

Have tried every where I can think of including emailing ROH direct, and no one seems to make a sunraysia rim that has a 106mm centre hole to match the hub. All are 111mm to suit Patrol or Cruiser.
Am wanting these so harder wheeling loads are taken by the hub instead of just the wheel studs. Want to have beadlocks welded on them.

Anyone know where I can get the rims ??

stock 4runner - that's an option tho would prefer to get the correct ones if possible.

flexytj - a 2 piece alloy rim with dual bead locks would be sweet, tho bit out of my price range ATM.

Surely everyone is not running rims with a holecentre too big for their Hilux hubs ?!? :?

Normally steelies are a nut centric wheel, they are designed for load bearing off the nuts and don't need a hubcentric fit to carry the loads they are designed for.

Really I wouldn't stress to much about it. I run Falcon steelies on my race jeep with weldon beadlocks and they are fine, we did bend one hitting a boulder at about 70km/h but that was to be expected, the wheel survived but the control arm sheared in half.

if you are hitting stuff hard enough to bend steelies I would be worried about the rest of your drivetrain. When you weld on the bead locks get an extra ring and weld onto the inner bead to strengthen the rim i guess...might help...
