:P Cool!!! Think i might have to get down the scrappy and get a set!!! I'm after a set of GV rims (deep dish) but the scrappy only had the shallow ones in the other week - he wanted 15 quid per rim and tyre, so fingers crossed the fourtrax rims will be a similar piece (he did have at least 3 fourtrax in there). When i first got my truck, i asked the dealer to swop the alloys on mine for the steelies on the other on the forecourt, but as the other was a demo he couldnt :-( however he kindly offered to order me a set of 5 through the parts department - 75notes + VAT a rim!!!! :sick: hence why 3 years later i've still got three spokes.

The GV would be the holy grail, but in the mean time, the fourtrax rims will be fine, just need a set of insas to go with them!!

dont dismiss the Daihatsu rims .. they also come in 2 width's .. mine are 6J's and I can put a 235 tyre on them no worries... I used to have a set of 7.5J's and my mate fitted a set of 31x10.5x15's on them ... too big for the standard Jimny though .... Gearing would need adjusting to run those monsters.
