Bling Wheel Sizes for Land Cruiser

Postby prossett on Tue Jun 03, 2008 12:41 pm

Time to move to the next step with Elsie, my 1994 Land Cruiser...

What are the cool bling sizes of rim+tyre?

I want lightweight bling rims with high-performance low profile tyres.

275/55 R20?
245/45 R19?

Lightweight and bling rims are two very different terms. :)
You gotta go 21"+ for bling.

OK, good point - forget lightweight: just bling.

21" rims with what size tyres?

Depends on the rim width.
Lets say you are using a 285:
If you really want the 'tireless' look, use something below profile 45. If you don't prefer that (really reduces ride quality), go for profile 45, not more. Somewhat like the Trailblazer you posted.

Well, it'll be new tyres and new rims, so I'm free to choose both sizes.

One more point, you won't really find a large variety of dubs for your Cruiser because most of them are six luggers (American SUV stuff) and because your Cruiser has a huge PCD when compared to the typical 5 lug PCD.

You replied as if you read my mind TNT... i was starting to wonder the PCD and offset of the LC and trying to remember how many times have i seen bling bling on it.

Prosett why dont u pay a visit to yellow hat and MSW... i bet you can get a good idea of whats available for you car...

I had been to MSW and I am the first one to own the rims that I have in the country.. or according to them.... :P

prossett! but that would be raping the purpose of your beautiful 4X4! the bling would look good on hummers and range rovers, cadillac escalades but Lcruisers look good and rugged the way they are!

well, if you still wanna try it, try Al Capri in Shj...

The pic is not showing up now.
This post is pretty old, prossett had posted a Trailblazer pic in his first post.

I beg to differ there. There are a couple of LC's out there with bling on them and they look great! Just my personal opinion! :)
