15x10 rims for 80 series
got a set of 33 x 15.5 MTZs now need rims for them to go on 80 series axles any suggestions?
Re: 15x10 rims for 80 series
as far as i know you cant run 15's on an 80 because of the brakes.MONSTAZUK wrote:got a set of 33 x 15.5 MTZs now need rims for them to go on 80 series axles any suggestions?
minimum is 16''
if your tyre is 15.5 inches wide i'd be going a 16x10 inch rim

pre 94 run the smaller brakes, if it is an early 80 then 15s will fithi_luxmad wrote:as far as i know you cant run 15's on an 80 because of the brakes.MONSTAZUK wrote:got a set of 33 x 15.5 MTZs now need rims for them to go on 80 series axles any suggestions?

If ignorance is bliss, then why aren't there more happy teenagers?
Pre Aug 93 is ok, if they came with 15's, once FZJ version hit the streets they came with bigger brakes, and the rear calipers stop 15's fitting.
Pro Comp will probably have some in stock, and I looked at Convo Pro's a while ago, for a polished alloy easy to look after finish, rather than silver or black powdercoat, but couldnt get 16 x 10 at the time.
Ended up using xchrome Pro Comp 99 series instead.

Supercharged 80 SOLD - "OPERATION SANDY" now in effect.
in my 60s ive ground the outside face of the rear caliper and can fit 15x8's
NOTE, I DONT SUGGEST DOIN THIS FOR A ROAD CAR.
although were it is ground its only a solid block of cast steel, i cant see it breaking and have know of people doing this with out fault also.
ive only takin off just enough to fit the rim, as i needed to move the car and dont have 16s yet.
15's fit fine on the front. ive got the bigger brake front and rear.
ill be looking a 16x10 inch rims to fit on soon.
