Re: 6.5jj Patrol pick-up rims wanted
I got 3 spare 6.5jj rims... (so if you can find another one or two - we can talk).
But a 8j patrol steel rim will also work. maybe even better. imho.
On my pickup I got 30mm spacers on the back wheels to prevent tyres from rubbing on the inside of the chassis.
Also got 6.5jj patrol steelies on my 4.5 wagon, had to fit 30mm spacers to stop the tyres rubbing the inside the wheel arches when flexing...
Think it is mainly due to the offset of these rims...
That said, I like mine.. replaced the 7.5j (00 offset) a-line rims on my 4.5 to fit the 6.5jj steelies..
(was not interested in 8j rims, as I like the idea of having the same size rims on both patrols.. )
