Great looking car Andre. I'm glad to see that 15's will fit the pajero. What wheels are they, and what offset are they?? and where did you buy them???
I found a site :
http://www.sa4x4store.co.za/ that sells steel wheels in all shapes and sizes, but will look into the patrol wheels now.

I think the only way 15" will fit is if the offset is different (so that the rim spokes are away from the brake calipers?)
I assume that those 15" rims stick out more than the std rims?

They're 17", but attractive & comes with reasonable tyres (HT's?). Not sure whether it is a set of 4 or 5...

15 inch will only fit the pre 2004 LWB and maybe up to 2007 SWb (I THINK!!) The brake calipers were made bigger after those years and thus the current 17inch rims on the Gen4. Benhur fitted 15inch Patrol steel rims but had to slightly trim some calipers to make them fit on his Pajero.

Are you sure Bennie's rims are 15", Christo? I seem to recall that they were rims off a Y61 Patrol GL, which would make them 16", at least that's what I thought they looked like.
