Need another Set of Wheels! ADVICE?

[moprado Lurker Find all posts View Profile Close moprado]

Hey,
Got 265/70/R16 on a 2.7l 4cyl prado. Thinking of getting either the original RV cheese cutter wheels and running just either Highway tyres or AT's. And then hopefully fitting some muddies on the R16 rims.
Question, can i get Hilux stock wheels onto this prado? Or Triton wheels? Or do they have to be prado rims only>>?
Cheers

Any six stud Toyota wheel will fit (as long as it's 16" or bigger), but make sure it's off an IFS vehicle, or they'll stick out too far.

Not sure about Triton wheels, it depends on the stud placement, I think they call it the PCD or something like that.

Some info for you. Currently Hilux rims are :

SR : 16 x 6 with P45 offset.
SR5 : 15 x 7 with P30 offset.

There is a rumour 17" wheels will be on the next Hilux upgrade.

NOTE- mitsubishi have a smaller hub centre (centre hole) and will not fit a toyots- lucky for us your toyota rims fit our mitsubishis.

ML triton rims (16x7, 17x7 or MN GLXr 17.7.5) have the same PCD but have a +38 offset- further in the guards- but see above

The hummer H3 has the same offset as the triton and come in 16x8 and have a large hole- not sure how large though? This size might IMO rub on the upper control arm though


Sorry for dragging up an old thread- just thought I could answer some of the questions posed.

I've got a set of 6" Hilux rims on my RV6 temporarily while waiting for new wheels. The Hilux rims have different offset to the factory ones I sold off it - they "stick out less" to be technical about it!

So don't assume Prado and Hilux rims will all be the same offset - clearly they aren't in this case.

Re: Need another Set of Wheels! ADVICE?

I was in at a local tyre dealer today getting my wheels rotated and balanced and the guy running the show (who drives a hilux) told me that they can fit 16x8 sunraysia wheels on with a default offset (as used on a hilux) if I fit rubber flares to cover the tyres where they protrude beyond the guards. He beleives that they wont rub at all ... any thoughts on that?

At $119 per rim it is VERY tempting!!

I'm running 16x8 CSA Stampedes still with 265/70x16 Duelers on my GXL and they are great, they fill the guards nice and don't rub anywhere. Still well within legal for track width, wheel width etc because it's a GXL, however don't know what the rule is for an RV that came with narrower wheels ex factory
