Does anyone know where I can get some 17" Steel Rims with 5 x 150 stud pattern and 0 Offset (Late Landcruiser 105 pattern) for a trailer. Must be 17" so the tyres can match the vehicle which won't take 16"rims.

thanks

Try your Toyota dealer. Ask him if he has any second hand ones. I picked up a very cheap, very new steel spare for my Prado that way. They keep the steels if the purchaser of a new car orders it with mags.

I know one camper that has wheel spacers so the owner has an ability to switch and match 16" and 17" with normal LC offset. Hasd heard though that 200s can't take 16" because of the calipers. Seems another reason not to have one at this stage. The offsets can be overcome though with the spacers ;-)

Interesting problem. Not sure thats theres a simple solution.

I'm guessing you have the 200series, and your trailer has the 100series RFA wheels. AFAIK, Toyota didn't make any 17" 5 stud RFA steel wheels. Might be worth a phone call though - I know in the early days of the 120series Prado, that you could special order a 17x7.5 six stud steel wheel.

Aftermarket: Try King Wheels. You may then need different wheel nuts to use it on the vehicle, and it may stick out an extra 60mm, so may touch the guards.

Changing the trailer axles or using wheel spacers on the trailer as John suggests are other options.
