Are these the only wheels that we got with the FJ? The ARB cattledog shows a six spoker not dissimilar to the phoenix wheel.

I think there is only one version of the FJ, these are the only car I have seen these rims on in Australia. The 4 Runner uses these rims on the KDSS trail edition as well.
The extra +10 offset really makes a difference I must say, but it may also be that I can now get full wheel lock.
i went with the stock wheel size for the prado GXL/VX as I live in SA and we have only a 15mm allowance in size. However I'm considering getting offroad rubber now something like 285/70/17s from what I know the offset will help reduce rubbing?[B]2012 - 150 VX[/B]Comment

Not quite an inch, but 20mm:Originally posted by BobTheMonkey View Post
The GX rims are a +15 offset and as a result the track is 1605mm, same as the FJ with a +15 offset.
The GXL/VX/Kakadu all have a +25 offset and therefore the track is 20mm narrower at 1585mm."Sure it’s quiet, for a diesel, but that’s like being well-behaved… for a murderer."- Jeremy ClarksonComment

I think the offset difference between GX and the rest stems from the 1" narrower rims therefore maintaining wheel face in same position.Comment

Yeah the GX has 245 on 6.5 inch rims, not sure what offset tho.Originally posted by Dusty74 View Post
Edit - oh wait they are +15 =D
anyway, how does this help me get 285/70/17s on my VX?Last edited by BobTheMonkey; 17-11-2012, 03:09 PM.[B]2012 - 150 VX[/B]Comment

I'm glad to hear your family is safe Bob! I think I read about you in the paper, they mentioned the Harley and another car that was being restored or something. Your profile says SA, didn't realise you were in Tassie.Comment

Yeah we moved down in sept, hadn't updated the profile, going back to South Australia when we can get on the boat nothing left here for us right now.
Keep my car registered in SA so I could keep my plates
taz don't have 7 letter ones yet.
