Yes they will fit, and they will look good.
Just check the tyre size first _________________ |

I have shogun/paj alloys on mine, they do have a different offset to standard trooper wheels but fit with no fouling even at full articulation (obviously will depend on tyre size) You may need the wheel nuts too as mine use a nut with a flat and a parralel bit that fits inside the wheel rather than a tapered nut. _________________ Phil

I would say so, but as Philp said use the nut's that fit the wheels. |

Yes they do. I had to buy some extras from Mitsubishi as my spare is a steel wheel and the previous owner had thoughtfully used two of the old tapered nuts on each wheel so presumably he had a set to fit the spare. Not wanting my wheels to fall off I got some new ones to fit the alloys from mitsi. Just watch out though as they're bloody expensive new. _________________ Phil

Maybe all japanese six studs will but there are other six stud fitments out there that won't like my chevy for instance. You still need to check the PCD, offset and stud size. _________________ Phil
