is it true that gu patrols cant run a 15inch rim due to the brakes calliper being to big?
cheers kieran

The 4.8L patrols have bigger brakes and can't run 15's.
All other models can run 15" steelies.

I used my 15" alloys on my GU. They cleared the calipers, but only just!! At the OBC I picked up an unlucky pebble that got jammed between the caliper & rim it cut the rim out.
After That race I went to 16" rims.

thanks for that i was just told that muddies were cheaper for a 15inch but didnt seem to be the case anyway so bought some new hancock m/t 03s seem to very good little to no noise and chunky looking tyres.

i run -30 offset rims on my GU
i dont get any scrubbing and they sit inline with the factoru flares (99 GU ST)
-30 aparently will fit onto the 4.8 aswell but not 100% sure
