what rims have i got???

Post by shanus05 »

ive just bought some mickey thompson claws, 33 inch on 15x8 sunraysia rims. they came off a 96 ifs hilux. when i fitted these to my maverick, the rears were fine however the front rims rested on what seem to be the brake pad surround (not sure of the official term) and wouldnt rotate. i thought toyota offset would be the same as nissan. any thoughts would be appreciated

The off set you want is -23 which is also called "cruiser" offset. Hilux ifs offset are nearly positive offset and as you've found dont work.
hope this helps
