|
|
|
Hi all,
Recently joined and already asking questions
Just ordered some 235/60/16 insa dakar tyres for my 2003 GV 1.6 swb
Would really like to put them on a new set of modulars but have seen on various websites ( ie jimny bits ) that they wont fit the GV due to caliper clearance
Question is, will they fit if i use spacers to space the wheels out from the calipers ?
Thanks John

Don't know about the fitment but if you are going to use spacers be sure to buy the billet (solid) ally ones.

There does seem to be a problem with certain modular wheels that don't clear the calipers, a call to wheel/tyre suppliers should lead to you finding out which wheels to stay clear of.As RichardD has suggested only buy billet ally one piece spacers.
