Out of curiosity do some stock jimny wheels have different sizes/offsets to others. I have heard 2 conflicting sizes for stock Jimnies

15x6 et5 and 15x5.5 et0

No idea which one is correct.

That looks really superb but you might have a point as the tread is just a tad out of the arch cover line but I doubt it would be noticed. Pity!
Love the red.

My answer is always to go with offsets.

Great feed back so far but as mine is a 2006 jimny with the second generation bumper. Still not sure, i know the front bumper will need trimming. Anyone with off-set rims on a 2006 onwards?
