I am looking for some 100 series GXL IFS steel rims. If I can get some cheap enough I would like to convert my camper to the same wheels and also have a couple of spares for travelling. There must be a pile of spare rims somewere from all the mags that have been fitted. Perhaps some one knows of a tyre place that will sell them cheap.

I live in
Perth and late last year bought 4 of these wheels (100 Series IFS steel Wheels) from my local Toyota dealer for $50.00 each including the steel hubs.
At that time, that dealer had about 20 of these wheels in stock (all swapped off new vehicles for alloys) and the comment was made that the number of these wheels available was growing with little or no demand for their use.
Like you, I bought these for my camper trailer which we are currently having manufactured so as to match the wheels on our Cruiser.
When I had the tyres fitted at Ian Diffen (3 weeks ago), they also had the same wheels (at least 4 off) which they offered for $40.00 each.
With the new V8 GXL now having the same wheels as the T/D, these wheels are becoming far more freely available on the second hand market.
Hope that this helps

Thanks for the replys I did find some in the end at my local dealer. But to my dismay found they will not fit the camper any way. So its modify the camper to fit them or stick with the same camper wheels .
