What are you trying to achieve. You coudl buy brand new 15 x 7 steels from just about any manufacturer for about $50 each. Not sure about the 15x7 offset in the 80 but the 16 x 8 is zero whilst the 16 x 8 in Nissan is 10 pos. The early leaf sprung toyotas were mostly around 25 neg but don't quote me exactly there as I never played with them. Let us know what you are trying to do and why and you might get a more accurate answer.

He says "fitted with 15 x 7 rims" cranky so i would assume it's pre 11/92 if they are factory rims and I'm sure you meant to say post 11/92 didn't you ;)

Any 6 stud rim from Solid axle cruiser/Hilux should fit if its before bigger brakes went on...

Thanks guys. We are fitting out a dual axle builders trailer and want to be able to use the spare tyres for the trailer on the cruiser(91 model) if need be. Just trying to save some cost by getting second hand rims because we want 6.
Original 15 x 7's are near impossible to find so I have found so I am exploring the alternatives.
