Compatiple wheels

Really old stuff that got saved. Here are the old Nissan Patrol Club America messages from the 'General' category. Warning, it's dusty in here!

Anyone have suggestions on what kind of wheels that will fit a 69 L-60 patrol.  I have the original tires and rims on and want put something else on..... I am sure someone has put a rims and tires on from another type of vehicle?   Thanks!

I recall back in the day I bagged some wheals off  a late 70's toyota pickup truck. They fit perfectly. They were the stock wheals a guy had changed out.   Good luck.

just take some measurements off youre existing wheels ,  factory offset of 4 inches max . fj40 wheels will work butt expect thing to break due to added weight and maybe  rubb if youre to wide if youre looking for modern wheels  just about any 6 bolt toyota or nissan will work just watch youre width 8 /10 wide will definitely need a serious 3 inch lift and id keep at least 6 wheel studs in my pocket to replace them as they break and maybe a couple short axles  and wheel bearings galore if you plan on wheeling it the rear wheel bearing are a b...tch and are prone to going out with stock set   butt they do look good sitting on 34X12 s just not very practical whith a top speed of 45

Not too bad looking, really. Definitely has potential. Hnag on to those old wheels - they are the original split rims.

well it may need a little work butt its 99%all there which is very rare the side steps dont loose them worth big money  floor boards can be found you just need to ask around  also its a mid year more in comon with a 68 than a 69  with very little work you could have a show truck after a little buffing and scrubbing is all it would take and a few body parts butt heck i keep finding parts rigs missing 90% of everything  the front bumper isnt stock butt they usually get damaged and swapped out   there is a parts rig listed in tucson in the for sale section call him all you need is there just make a offer  good luck ps if you have the hubcaps dont loose them  really big money in those

Were did you get this Patrol? And were are you?   I swear this looks like my old patrol that I owned in the late 70's. I recognize that c-channel bumper. Does it have a small hole on the driver side front quarter panel?
