G'day all, could someone tell me if the 80 series
wheels and the 60 series
wheels are interchangable please.
Dave

Unless somebody has some crazy offsets, yes. I'd suggest checking the front
wheels through full motion but it should be fine.

Not really.
Theres a substantial difference in offset - 80 series
wheels have more backspacing than 60 series.
But.... the 60series split rims go
well on the 80series - the track gets widened. But 80series
wheels don't go
well on 60series - likely to foul on the inside.
And all 60series and up to late '92 80series can take the 15 inch
wheels. But later 80series need 16inch
wheels.

Thanks Phil, I heard about some
wheels that looked the same as
mine but off an 80 series.
They were quite a long way from where I live, so wanted to get the guff before I drove a long way for a dud purchase.
Thanks again
Dave
