a few pics of my old cars i have had in the last 2 years
first car, 1996 pajero petrol lifted 2" with muddies
second car, 1979 swb bj40 diesel 3ltr non turbo 2" lift 35" tyres.. great car.
third car, this was my worst choice of car, i just can't love to drive anything that isn't a 4wheeler or manual.

thanks amte they are only 15x7 rims so they are not overly wide but they suit the car without looking stupid
the tyres seem to bag out more on the 15's then the standerd 16's.
thats a great snapshot in the second pic! howsthe flex go the patrol!

your rims look to me like 15x8s and around -23 offset. havent seen 7s ever have that dish and i think yout 12.5s arent bulging enough.
just a quick question on this though as im about to buy tyres for my gu,how much clearance do you have at steering arms,brakes etc on the inside of the rims as i can save a bit of coin goin 15s and 33s thanks

If you don't need the 16inch rims, then the 15's clear fine - most patrols, I run 15 x 8's on my gu for the play tyres.
