Default New Member looking for new wheels

Hey everyone! I bought my 2008 GX470 LexLuna in June of 2015 and absolutely love it! When I bought it, it had 20 inch rims and new tires but one of the tires suffered a bad sidewall puncture and its toast. Now I'm now looking for new rims and tires that will actually take me off road. Maybe 17 inch 4runner rims. In the meantime here is a pic with her current shoes. Shopping for rims is a really hard decision! Has anyone seen a GX with 2015 4runner sr5 rims?

I'd actually recommend looking for the following:
4Runner Trail wheels
FJCruiser Wheels
TRD Offroad Wheels
Method Wheels look nice as well: Nice looking ones here: http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Wheel...160321190110:s

I've got the FJ Cruiser wheels for my winter studded tires, they work great.

Funny I also posted a thread thinking those wheels would look really good. Seems like you can get a used set with only a few thousand miles on them for cheap. The tires are also a step up in size which is nice. Seems like they run in the $6-700 range. Not a bad deal at all. If you get some please post up with pictures.

The BFD 18 inch wheels look awesome on this truck.

I concur, but I'm a little biased.

Agreed, I think those are the best looking wheels.
Just wish they were softer on my wallet.
