I'd like a full sized spare. Does anyone have an original wheel they want rid of? :bgwo:

Failing that, any suggestions as to what it is I need to buy, size, offset etc etc? Tyre isn't important as I'll put a matching one on.

Cheers

I found an alloy wheel from a Honda Passport (re badged Rodeo over here) works quite nicely. I picked one up from a salvage yard for cheap, same bolt pattern, width & offset.
Trooper, Rodeo, Amigo & Axiom wheels "should" also work.

I combined that with a used 285/75x16" (33" dia) that I figure will be close enough in size, when mounted on the front axle, to get back to civilization.

I may have to re think the whole spare situation when I get the big tires on...:_thinking

Since you JDM guys have the option of 2WD, perfect size match shouldn't be as big an issue as long as the spare ends up on the front axle.

I have 4 original alloys with 265 75 R16 BFG MTs hardly worn which you can have for £200.

No worries, I also want to sell my BFG ATs 285 75 16 on Excite alloys if you're interested. This is funding my 35s:)

The same alloys were used on troopers and Vauxhall Montereys. I've had a number of sets...

Actually, I picked up a set for £25 down near you at one point Nick.

Here's 4 for £50... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ISUZU-TROOPER-ALLOY-WHEELS-AND-TYRES-SET-OF-4_W0QQitemZ320495066143QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsP arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item4a9efe9c1f
