Gday all, have a 2004 79 series ute HDJ79, am just wondering if the wheels would fit on a 2008 VDJ78 troopy? Am selling the ute and looking to buy the troopy, & considering keeping the alloys for the troopy. I cant compare them as one vehicle is interstate.
Cheers

They are identical in all respects.
If your HDJ79 has the RV factory alloys, then make sure the alloy wheel nuts stay with the mags.
Every other wheel (both steel and alloy) that fits on a 78/79series takes the standard tapered wheel nuts.
On the troopie, you will most likely need to add front and rear flares.

Thanks guys, was pretty sure they would fit straight on, and the troopy is flared with 265/75 16's on already. With the news the 70's are being phased out, I'll be unbolting everything I can for the troopy set up. It will be a long term keeper ( and worth heaps in years to come!!!)
