FX4 oem wheels- used prices?????
I was looking into getting some of the 2002-2003 FX4 style oem wheels for my 2002. have found some locally, and was wondering what a good price would be for a complete set+lug nuts+center caps? 
good luck. With lugs caps and wheels... I would say at least 75.00 each... not shipped... perfect condition that is. I sold 4. not the best... for 250.00 or so ( i don't remember) including shipping........... no lugs... with caps. I bought some alloys for my wife's Chrysler 300 from Ebay... 4 rims shipped for 200.00 and it cost me nearly another 150.00 for all the lug nuts from our stealership.

rims purchased-now what rubbers to use
so i picked up all 4 wheels(FX4 style 2003-2002 years). the rims were off a 2002, the guy bought the truck new in 2002, and immediately pulled the wheels off and put aftermarket tires/wheels and a lift on. The rims had been in storage ever since, and the guy was going through and decided to sell them. They look practically brand new!!!! Score!!
now, what size tires to put on the 17" wheels
also picked up a honeycomb style grille for cheap. time to try some of that dupli-color plastic paint now.

tires for the 17"rims found
Well, i finally got to it and ordered some 285-75-17 nitto terra grapplers for those 17" rims. Pics soon to follow as soon as I get the tires mounted/balanced.
-06yz250f: picked up the rims+lug nuts for $400. my truck is a stock 4x4, with hellwig add a leaf 2500's in the back. Ride height is pretty much stock, maybe a little bit higher in the back when I crank down the add a leafs. as far as cranking the torsion bars, they haven't been maxed out. I just adjusted them to where the height/spring action suited me. I still have about 8-10 full turns left if I were to max out the adjustment screws on the torsion bars. I also re-geared 4 years ago from a 3.31:1 to a 4.10:1. Heavy duty radiator, trans cooler also installed. Dual electric fan setup, Detroit Tru-trac limited slip and a Trans-go shift kit also installed on the truck.
with 265-70-16 tires, the height from the ground to the top inside edge of the fenders on the front:37" the rear: 39"

285/70r 17 is a good tire. Think it's like a 33x11.5
