Dave, I've got 3 sets of tires, but need some rims. Are you willing to sell just a set of rims?

Buddy, I have 2 of the space saver rims, welded centers, with the 5 on 4.75" BC. Can you use these?

Maybe- what are ' space saver' rims?

"Space Saver" rims are those that have that tiny little tire on them as a spare on a lot of newer cars, to save space a make the trunk look bigger.

. . . and some are pretty narrow for the appropriate Front Runners or such.

Gary, that sounds great- Thanks!

I have a full set, but wanted to mount 'spare' tires, so this will be great!

Gary,

Still got the wheels?

Are they 15 inch?

How's everything else?
