i have a set at the moment that im thinkin of getting chopped and flipped, as there the right width for my tires tho i just need bigger off set,
are these a super rare item, should i try off load these in exchange for some other 16inch rims to suit suzuki

[tanshi]

they arent super rare, but good ones can be hard to come by

[smiffkid]

mine seem pretty straigh, bit rusty but nothing a sand blast wouldn fix,
im just wondering how many people will get upset if i chop them up,

[monley]

could you not just use wheels spacers?

[smiffkid]

but they cost more then getting rims flipped,

[alien]

get any 15x7 off gumtree that fits and flip them... in the meantime restore the LJ rims and put them back on the LJ =)

[smiffkid]

i have 15x7s,
the rims im talking about are the 16x4.5 factory rims, that usualy have bar treas on them,

[alien]

4.5? fark thats narrow =) haha i didnt realise they were that skinny! just go take the wheels off your old BMX... haha

wtf tyre size are you running that wants a 4.5" rim?

[smiffkid]

32x8,

[alien]

is that the mud paddler tractor tyre??? or something else?

[smiffkid]

there could a farm service lug, but yea they do fit on 7 inch rims, but i dont have any 16x7 with zook stud pattern

[alien]

yeah not a common size at all... still, either way hacking up an original LJ rim seems like a shame.

[smiffkid]

well im not gonna buy new rims just to put them on haha, its only to stop them from hitting on the springs, unless some 1 has some un wanted wheel spacers,

[smiffkid]

there the same size as a 750R16, there just 8 inch wide instead of 7.5 they came of split rims,

If you were going to cut the centres out to flip them, I wouldn't bother putting the old 4.5 rim section back on, I'd find some Toyota 16x5.5 rims (either solids or split rim) and mount those rims to the LJ centres with the original backspacing, which will give you an extra 13mm pos offset.

[smiffkid]

good point, i might have to look into that

Don't wreck LJ stuff - Naughty Naughty Naughty - Tony

sorry tony, but my lj chassis has been chopped down 200mm, custom tray, after markets seat cause the originals are stuffed, corolla motor and gear box as the original doesnt not exist any more
