Nissan Rims

Hi I've seen nissan 5 stud mags on a brumby before. The guy who did it was a mechanic up in Cairns and he said he had the hubs redrilled to the nissan pattern. I think they were 16" or 17" rims with low profile street tyres. Looked good

Drill 2 holes in the 6-bolt pattern diagonally opposite any two others, then weld up the 4 you no longer need. Instant 4x140 PCD.

Problem with Patrol rims is the offset will stick outside your wheelwells. You might be ok with Navara rims, or small 1 tonner like a Mazda Bravo / Ford Courier.
