'01 Sequoia - New 16" wheels - What Specs Do I Need?

[Jettix2]

Hey guys;

I've been paging through the Wheel/Tire forum here because I'm tired of having my snow tires mounted/dismounted x2 each year off my OEM wheels. I'm going to keep my OEM 16" wheels & Blizzaks for winter, and I need to pick up an inexpensive set of wheels for summer.

They'll have 265/75R16 BFGoodrich Rugged Trails mounted on them (75s, not 70s, they were take-offs from my parent's Excursion and fit fine).

I'm looking for an inexpensive 16" wheel, I know the bolt pattern is 6x5.5.......what offset/backspacing do I need? Bore size is 108mm, right?

Anything else I need to keep in mind? Looking at American Racing, Eagle, Mickey Thompson, etc etc...

Thanks! Ben

Do you want a different style or are the OEM ok? I picked up some 16" OEM alloy rims from E-bay for about $200 that I use for winter. You might find the same here in the classifieds or ebay. Other option which is probably cheaper is some factory steel rims to mount your Blizzaks on. They even have real cheap those chrome plastic hubcap/skins that fit exact over them if you want a little better look.
