Safari Stud patterns to hilux

Post by gary_in_nz »

hey guys,
a mate of mine has some old steel rims he was using off road on his safari (early 90's model from memory) and said i could have them since he has since sold his truck, for a box of stiney's.

My question is are they the same stud pattern so they will fit my 98 hilux???

cheers, gary

The stud pattern will be the same, but your '98 Hilux will most likely be IFS, which means they will probably sit waaaay wide on your truck... which is good for stability offroad, but not so good for WOF time if they put the tyres outside the guards...

Then you should be fine - the offset will be similar...

U can fit Nissin wheels onto Toyota's , but not Toyota's onto Nissin, The centre hole in smaller on the Toyota.
This is only if they are OME wheels.
