JTO Pop down to Neta Tyre and service on Toombul Rd at Northgate, speak to Phil, and see if they have a King Rim to fit.. I was told you couldn't put 15's on a KJ , but, he had them to suit on the shelf..
Only hassle prolly will be the offsetting, IE going to far out, so tyres no longer covered

I called King Rims a while back. They didn't even want to know about it. Then again, they also told me that only 17s will fit. We all know that 16s do fit so not sure what that was about. Maybe the guy I spoke to was full of it...

I will check this out and see if one will fit without clashing.

Quite often they don't "List" certain rims to fit certain vehicles because of legalities....


Simply ask for what you want, IE 15 inch 7 or 8 inch or whatever, 5 on 5.5 with 4.5 or less back spacing...

My 15x7's on the KJ have zero offset and are under the guards
