Do you know what the backspacing (or offset) is on these?
Cheers, Martin

Centre bore on a Pajero or Shogun is 108mm - it's the PCD that's 139.7mm Centres can be machined out to 108 quite easily and £40 is a steal for such an unusual & striking set of wheels. Both my Delica's are sorted for wheels (10" wide on one and off-road steels on the other) otherwise I'd have bought these right away. Someone should buy these - I doubt you'll see another set like them for a very long time? GasserJay - advertise them on the Pajero Owners Club (POCUK.com) or Delica Owners Club (MDOCUK.co.uk) for £80 and you'll easily sell them....they love unusual wheels

Your right I got it the wrong way round, but even so to get them bored out surely will weaken the wheel ? and yes you maybe right he could advertise them on POCUK which I am a member of and maybe he might sell them ? who knows but this is where I get all of the info I need about these wheels, where I have posted a pic, so tell me in your opinion do you think it would be ok to bore them out and it wouldn't weaken the wheel? and as for all the other measurements do you agree that they would fit ? Cheers Netsniper

5.5" = 139.7mm so the PCD is spot on for Paj fitment. Offset is zero which means they will protrude about 15mm more than the standard fitment 7" wide wheels (15mm = nothing on something like a Pajero....there is LOADS of room) I would recommend fitting 31" tyres (31/10.5 15) to these wheels - personally I wouldn't consider any other tyre size on a 7x15" wheel. Having the centre bore opened up won't weaken the wheel at all - it'll leave exactly the same amount of metal as all Japanese 4x4 wheels have between the stud holes and centre bore. You're basically turning it to the same spec as existing Paj wheels....in fact a lot of aftermarket 139.7 wheels have an even larger centrebore than 108mm so I am 99.999% sure that these will be fine for machining without comprimising strength in any way. As I said above - I'd have absolutely no problem whatsoever doing this myself and would almost certainly buy these wheels right now if I had a vehicle to put them on. They are such cool and unusual wheels that with a tiny bit of machining would make a totally unique set of Pajero alloys....food for thought heh? I wouldn't ponder on it for too long though - I might just change my mind and buy them! At that price you'd be a fool not to snap them up......
