Cruiser Rims- Fair Price?

Post by bigpat »

Might be buyng some 34" JT2's for 16" rims, as play tyres for Surf once its lifted. I know 16x 8 Sunny's are exy compared to 15 x 8. So I was thinking of getting a set of 16" rims from 80 series.

What do ya reckon's the going rate on a set?

If you can get them ,use the Prado steelies, 16" and offset them a little.

are prado rims 8" wide tho, im pretty sure theyre 7"s


factory cruiser rims sell for as much as $100/rim if you can find em, a friend of mine has been looking for a cheap set of 16x8's for a while and the cheapest is looking like being brand new ROH track2's.

They are 7. I know they are a little pricey, but worth it if you can.

With Prado ones being 7" wide, can I fit an 11.5" wide tyre to them?

Hi They are fetching over $100 each for good ones.....cheaper to get ROH rim if you ask me, as these are slightly wider offset to std (+13) but are nowhere as tough as the oem's
There is a set of 4 prado rims with 35 silverstone m/t at the moment...(one of us is selling them)
