yea, but depends on the offset. Landcruiser offset works, possibly patrol but you would have to check. And with the landcruiser offset when i just had the torsion bars up they use to scrub a little in certain places wen turning

I just test fitted a 15" rim from a mates hilux and it fitted fine. He was actually told when he bought it from the shop that the wheel was actually a navara offset. The tyre on it was a simex M/T 31x10.5 which for the record was pretty much exactly the same overall diameter as my 265/70 tyres I'm running now.

How is it a hilux can find a navara offset rim but i couldnt :? i went to more then 5 different tyre places and none fit, arb was the last place i tried and i said do you have any other offset rims and they tried one and it fit. Luck of the draw i spose.

Bigmav, i dont spose you know what the offset was on the rim? Id rather be running my patrol offset rims as 15's but i duno if theyll hit the caliper or not.

Next time I see him I'll try and measure it up and see. Just cause the salesman told him it was for a Navara I don't think means much but yeah you've got me curious now so will rip his spare off and check it out again.

i have a set of 15in sunsraysiers that have 31's on them its got a really weird offset that dosent fit on any other 4by i tried it on, lux, cruiser, trol.
there a real shallow offset,

im going to a set of 15X8 with a cruiser offset for the offroad tyres
and keep the 95series prado 16's with 26575r16 for the road

P.S labrador tyre plus is the cheapest BFgoodrich dealer on the gold coast
