Hello Everyone,
Fisrt of all thanks to Baz in
Bright for all your help had a ball last November, everyone in the family has got the bug now (mission accomplished) another 4 lots of 4x4 recruits.
My question tonight is probably a dumb question for all in the know ....but help me as I am a NOVICE.
Is the stud pattern and wheels interchangeable between a Pajero and a Patrol.
Looking at a camper trailer with Paj pattern...I own a Patrol do I need to change anything.
Best wishes to all
Malcolm P.

Stud pattern aside, if you put the patrol rims on the camper, you may find the tyres are closer to the chassis on the inside. It shouldn't be a drama cos most trailers are made with room to fit a whole range of different rims.
You will have trouble however if you try to put the paj rims on the patrol, if the offset is too different, the tyre could have an adverse effect on the steering.
This could also affect insurance in the case of an accident, and the road worthiness of the car in the eyes of the LAW.
Patrol rims being what they are, if you want to be able to interchange tyres between the car AND the camper, I'd get a second hand set the same as whats on ur vehicle.
Damn, is that the long way to say what I just said or what ???? te he
