I bought these the other week. 16x7"
Got the rims new in the Isuzu boxes for AU$320. Anyone seen them before, they arent a style ive seen over here.

I grabbed the tyres cheap 245/70/16, they should fill the rear arches. Im thinking 215 or 225 60 or 55 series on the front.

Im thinking the hard part will be making them fit. 39 offset will be an issue. Wider diff in the back will fix it, not sure how to do the front, considering spacers are illegal here.

Thats the look im going for. And if it dont all work out im not going to cry about wasting money. lol.


I trial fitted the rims. They wont fit on the back by a long way. ET39 or whatever they are is dished in way to far like i thought.

Im going to go a wider diff and just relocate the spring saddles. I was looking at the same diff thats used in the WFR series Isuzu Shuttle Bus. Its a little wider but the same drums and the same centre. I might look at a stronger diff possibly too.

The front i had half a go at but as the draglink is bent it was hard to get a true idea. I will have to wait till i get up the Bush to recover the front end out of the old gutted pup (solid discs). The plan is to use its draglink, ventilated 86 brakes and spindles and a Trooper power steering box. Im thinking i might even swap the lower suspension arms and the castor rods over if it will work.
