Nissan Navara 500 Wheels interchangeability with Toyota 200

I thought the Navara wheels were 6 stub and the 200 series 5 stud....... 5 into 6 doesn't go well.

Why do you need so many spares?

The simple answer is: don't buy a vehicle with an orphan stud pattern... but a stud pattern change on the KK (if it is possible) will enable you to share spares

Co-incidentally, I am investigating this very plight for a customer right now, I will let you know what the outcome is, or call me

The answer is that you have the trailer hubs redrilled for Navara stud pattern.

If there is not enough room to redrill, you get blank hubs and have them drilled and studded.
The only caveat here is that the offsets must be reasonably compatable so that the tyres clear the guards on the trailer.

I have done this with a Camp'o'matic to fit Range Rover mags instead of old Toyota pattern.

i had my van made with VC air and 5 stud wheels to match the Navara i had. Then changed vehicles to a LC with 6 stud pattern.

VC offered to change over to new stud pattern for the bargain price of $4,000!

I now run with one spare for each, a good compressor and ARB's repair kit and a prayer each time we go away!

It is easy enough to buy two new hubs with the stud pattern you require to solve the problem.
Besides the offset/interference problem which may arise the issue of tyre diameter is also very real.
If you had to change to a spare off the trailer is it the same diameter and will your driveline and limited slip diff like the difference, if any.
Even a small amount of difference in diameter will cause stress on some mechanical parts because the wheels may be rotating at different speeds from what they are designed to do.
A recent post with a person using different tyre sizes front to back was going to try and travel the Simpson with the wheels trying to skid 37 metres every kilometre travelled. eg. 265/70 vs 265/75
There are also issues with ABS and stability control systems if used outside of emergency conditions.

Ross your observations are quite valid .
If you want to have the advantage of interchangeability , you must have tyres of the same roilling diameter. For example I have 245.70x16 tyres on my Range Rover and 205.80x16 on the trailer. These have exactly the same rolling diameter.
Also the trailer spare will only be used in an emergency, eg where a second tyre fails away from civilisation , so the lesser of two evils is to proceed to the nearest place with tyre repair/replacement facilities, rather than be stuck in the middle of nowhere.

The cost to redrill hubs is about $100, from my experience. You have to add the cost of studs and nuts also. In addition if the tyres are not the same diameter you have to consider that cost, although I would think a Kimberley camper would have tyres near to the diameter required. That needs checking.
