Anyone know if these Tacoma Steel wheels will fit a 65 p60. 30mm offset seem right?
So, I just bought this Patrol….

They fitted my '74.
These wheels are always cheap, I'm sure it's because new Tacomas are sold with fancy wheels so the steel ones are surplus.
Interestingly they didn't fit my 70 series Landcruiser, they fouled the front calipers. That was a wasted morning!

The listing doesn't say whether they are +3mm-, or -30mm offset, but from RichW's picture, my eyeballs are guessing they are -30mm (1.2 inch) which means they have roughly 2.75 inch frontspacing, and 4.25 backspace... Should work fine on a 60 series patrol with stock brake drums

if you buy a set paint them straight away, preferably bead blasting off the rubbish coating that comes as standard first!

Perfect Richw. Thats exactly what I needed to know.
I actually found a set of wheels off a 95 4 runner that I think will fit also. only $150 with tires.

Hey Mr Jonas...

I just looked at your posted pics above, and I'm pretty sure that the steel wheels that were on your Patrol are original '60-'66, 16x5 Nissan Patrol wheels. Those wheels are very rare, and someone may want them, so PLEASE don't send them to the scrap yard.... :)
