if anyone has any other wheels on their isuzu other than isuzu wheels, what do ya have?? meaning from gm, toyota, nissan, etc... want to kno what fits. 15, 16, 17", 6-8" wide, whatever. show some pics of what ya have and what they came off of. what's the backspacing, diameter of center hub opening, bla bla bla.... lets see what all fits..
I found a parts truck for the replacement of my rusted out frame on my truck. I only have 60,000 miles on her and it would be a shame to junk it when the running gear is still solid and the interior is leather and mint.
The parts truck is a 99 Amigo and has everything but the wheels. Any idea what cheap steel wheels I could get to allow it to be transported by car hauler from out of state to me?
I won't be running the steel wheels on the road, just need to get it on the truck and be able to move it around so I can separate the body from the frame and do the replacement work.
Wow! That looks like it came that way. The larger size looks good on the Trooper. Find some Isuzu center caps and you would really have everyone fooled.
Anyone with 17s? Or what other zu's came with 17s beside the axioms? I love the axiom wheels but their back spacing is a little much. Need something thats a little further out from the frame, can use spacers sure but if I dont have to y? kind of stuck with 17s to get the overall tire profile im after.....least at a friendly price.
Nissan has a nice back spacing, you have to take the wheels to have the hub bored out...
GM wheels I do not know the back spacing space, you have to take the wheels to have the hub bored out...
Toyota need spacers... You DO NOT have to take the wheels to have the hub bored out...
I've got a 1992 Isuzu Trooper that I put 17"x9" aftermarket wheels that came off a 02 GMC Yukon XL. I had a machine shop open up the bore from 4" to 4.25 ". They work great. Running BFG KO's.
I just put Axiom 17" wheels on my Trooper. There are two different styles of Axiom wheels though. The wheels with flush center caps only fit on the rear and would need to be bored out to fit the front.

Hey uncle rico can you post a picture of the kind of lug nuts that came on your rodeo, I have a set of factory center caps that I want to install on a factory set of 15" steel rims, but the lug nuts on my Trooper don't appear to be correct. The area where the lug nut seats on the center cap gets crushed when I tighten down the lug nut. I don't want to ruin these so I'd really appreciate it if you can post a picture. BTW your Rodeo looks sharp!
Kind of. The main hole is 108mm, but there is an extra ring about 1/4" thick and wide around the inside that prevents the wheels from fitting over the front hubs.

Thanks for that.
2002 they changed the hubs to the sealed bearings that don't protrude with a "Hub Cap".
I'll get the ones like you have with the raised centers as mine is a 98.

I've talked to a machinist that said he could do it, but I would have to take the tire off and for just one, I think it would have cost me more than I paid for all the wheels together from the junk yard. I didn't get an actual quote, but I was thinking it was going to be around $100. I eventually got 1.5" wheel spacers, and then that style wheel would fit over the SuperWinch manual hubs I was running. However, I recently switched to the Aisin manual hubs, and now that wheel won't fit on front again.
I guess Toyota guys have some wheel with a similar issue, and guys have been just using a router with a guide bearing and taking the lip off themselves. Apparently that drove all the machinists crazy, but they apparently didn't have any problems with anything.

Thanks for the reply. Might be cheaper and less stressful to grab a second set of rims. I'll be running Aisin hubs after the 4wd conversion.
