Are Prado rims the same offset as an 80 series?

change of wheels from factory fitted regardless of the model designation needs engineers approval.

I beleive the prado runs more BS than an 80 series, but not much. Then again it depends on the model and specs for each model.

(Thats if both are GXL)
hands and mums dont count!!!

Roctruk,

Go have a look at Canberra Toyota Fyshwick. Go down the side of the building past the service bays and just behind the chain link fence, by the gate, in the grass are/were a couple of 16x7 Prado rims and 16x8 80 series rims. Might be the easiest just to measure them up.

Thanks, I might see if they're for sale. Generally these things are like rocking horse $h!t.

The good info through Goodyear in Fyshwick was they are not interchangable, the Prado is set further back and will foul on the inside on an 80.

I'm running stock 4-runner rims at the moment, only 16x6 so won't take the planned 285 MTRs

Not sure about the 80, but they will not clear on a 93 Lux solid axle (first hand experience).
