Post by SASS »

Ive got an 89 dualcab lux (solid front axle) and would love to know if a set of alloys of the new patrol would fit on it with no troubles?
I think these Alloys look real tuff.
if they wont fit, anyone Know of an alloy thats simmilar that will?
what size are the new patrol rims? 16"x7"?
Cheers SASS

New Patrol rims are 16x8, I had a set on my GQ but they were no good with 35's as the offsett is no good and they rubbed out on the control arms at full lock. But they do look good.... :D

16x8jj/265/75R16LT - coil cabs (these are optional on the leaf aswell)
5.5F-167.50R16 8PR - leaf cabs


this is straight from the cab and chassis brochure, not sure about the wagons.

The 0 offset that you have would be on a skinnier wheel. Offset varies as the rim width increases/decreases.
Standard Hilux splitties are a 16x5.5 0 offset.
I'm pretty sure that they are going to foul and would just about put money on it.... the leaf sprung Hilux suit a -25 in the 8" rims.
The new Patrol 17x8 are +10 offset which is going to bring it pretty snug with the tie rod end and more than likely rub under lock on the chassis. It will undertrack it by around 70mm. Definately not a good fit at all. Sorry!!! :D
Cheers,
Ryano

I'll have a dig monday and give you a few other options in wheels.....
a 31" in the 16" range are 245/75R16 and 265/70R16.

Honestly i doubt they will fit due to you having a solid axle leaf and the current model Patrol being a coil spring. You cant interchange these types of rims . Same as a standard Navara rim wont fit a Solid Axle leaf Hilux (Just ask the tyre service who tried to sell me one :roll: ),they only believed me when i said i have 15mins jack the front up and fit it ,hmmmm see it dont fit :D :D .

Sass, I brought 5 GU rims and tyres off ebay for $250, was just lucky to get em for that, but like I said bad offsett, so gave them to my old man for his GU to run a second set of tyres.

Cheers,

Paul
