Just wondering if Sunraysia wheels (16 inch) off a Nissan Patrol GU 2005 model will fit a 1998 HZJ75 Landcruiser Troopy.
The stud pattern is the same but not sure if calipers get in the way!
Thanks

I am not sure as to those years, however I remember that Nissan wheels would fit a Toyota, however the Toyota would not go onto the Nissan. This was due to the offset. So it may be OK.

I thought it was the other way round.
Toyota onto Nissan as Toyota has a better offset!
So confussed....

Hi Guy's
I have a 1993 80 Series and it came with nissan split rims and was told nissan fit toyota, but not the other way around.
That is for my car.
Then i got Sunrasia rims with a navara off set to fit the 80 series and all fine.
Hope this helps,
David

I used to run 80 series 16" x 8" on my 94 Patrol Coil cab ute.
Had to remove small locating lugs from around the centre hole of the wheels to fit them over the Nissan front hubs.
Otherwise all OK.
Cheers

I am guessing that you have obtained a set of these suckers either free or cheap.
In view of that I respectfully offer the following advice:
(1) do yourself a favour and give them to somebody else as it is odds on that you have no knowledge re their real on road history and/or the degree of metal fatigue that all wheels suffer and accumulate during their working life:
This also includes not obvious to the eye bent wheels, out of round wheels and wheels that have been 're rolled'.
It is however your choice to fit same to your vehicle and you can by all means 'try' them on and turn them by hand to see if they clear the Calipers. Then again if they do fit and and you decide to give them a go, it will be interesting days should they flex a bit more than expected and give the old calipers a shave.
(2) In the big scheme of things new wheels aren't that expensive.
(3) You pay for ROH's Sunraysia name and design when there are others available that are cheaper and of the same pattern .
(4) I personaly use Dynamic Wheels (Sunraysia pattern) on my Troopy and if you ring the National Importer at this web site
Dynamic Wheels They will answer all your questions re offsets and advise you of the closest dealer to you.
