Toyota Rims on GU
Toyota Rims on GU
Question,
I just picked up a 2nd s[are for a Simpson trip but the tyre is on a Toyota 6 stud rim. The centre of the rim edging has little steps which I'm not sure about
What is the general rule of thumb about fitting Toyota ($ h i t ) rims on a GU.
I did some measurments and worst case I'll grind the knotches off if I need to use it. That is of course if it doesnt fit

no idea what cruiser it came off, but looks older style so maybe 60 series, and prob gxl?
the steps or notches in the rim would be for the wheel caps, goes over the axle where it bolts to the hub. the notches are for the metal clips to stop the covers coming off. this is how the 80 series ones work anyway

Notches in rim are there to fit over the 'ribs' in the GU bearing hub.
Aftermarket Cruiser rims need about 1mm gound out to fit properly on to GQ/GU.

good luck mate, you might find it fits on the front and not the rear, in which case, if you get two rear flats, swap a front onto the rear and use it on your front...Swerve wrote:Mate paid $150 for a brand new 33" BFG AT tyre and the rim.bj on roids wrote:i love how its crap cause its a toyota rim
