    Just recently got a 94 4runner, and, being up in the mountains at elevation, I snagged an extra for snow tires. I've got the 3vze V6 with the stock OEM 15x7 wheels, these new ones are the 16x7.5 wheels off of a 2008 FJ Cruiser. I've put on a wheel to check fitment and they fit over the hub and brakes just fine. From what I can see without tires, they seem to clear just fine even though they're wider and I do plan to keep tires as close to OEM overall diameter as I can.

    However, before I get tires ordered and installed, I'd like to make sure I don't also need to order spacers to prevent any issues. I'm not very familiar at all with steering and suspension components and clearance for the various assemblies underneath, so I was hoping someone on here with more expertise could help.

    Hopefully these photos are adequate to determine if they're ok. It's my first truck and first proper 4x4 so I'm really excited! Thanks for any help!
