There are plenty available: speedy, roh, rockcrawler, etc. as well as alloys.

Any tyre shop should be able to help you out and order some in.

early jeeps have the same stud pattern as zooks. They are more likely to have 16's.

I bought a set of MINT 16x6's (5 of) for a carton of coldies last week :armsup: these will be going on my second zook after I flip them for a massive 6" of offset :roll:

they are out there, you just have to look.

PS. If you want to buy NEW 16's for your zook, don't be surprised if your're asked for upwards of $70 a rim :shock:

I have a set of 33x10.5R16 BFG Muddies and I tried to get 16" rims for them. To buy new the biggest width I could get was a 16x7 and the best price I could get them for was $80 a rim, I looked for second hand and the best I found were some 16x4.5 or something off a jeep and the dude wanted $50 a rim, they were too skinny anyway. I just bought an lj and that has the standard rims 16x5 or what ever they are. Do you think I can fit 33x10.5"s on that? The rims look ugly anyway. I still have the tyres laying around cause I concluded that it was too hard to find rims and too expensive to buy new.

Let me know if you have any luck or know of any model rims that would be suitable, like off what cars.

That's why I'm not using mine, I'm not going to spend $360 just on some rims for 1 set of tyres. I'd spend $100 or $150 for second hand but I can't find any.

The jeep rims you are after are the CJ model jeeps. The TJ's ( or newer) are no good for yooks.

16" F100 or rocky rims are hard to come by aswell :cry:

I could sell you the hubs and stubs of my 6 stud axles , then you can fit any jap six stud wheel . I had standard nissan rims 15x7 . Sadly I am in New Zealand so would cost a bit to ship . ( also can't find the rear drums and I put disc's on )

O-well . Here the second generation vitara , with 2.0 v6 has 16 inch rims , same stud pattern .

I can confirm that the 16X7 rims used on 2.0 litre vitaras and GV's fit coilers beautifully with a very suitable offset and a nice factory look.
