Hi everyone I found this thread by fellow peers. I tried to put a nylon cable through the drain but still when I spray the rig with water it drips on top of the drain hose as displayed in the pictures. I put all the plugs on the bottom of the rocker panel and also on the floor. Am I doing it the...

thank you very much all for the solution. I took off the black plugs from the side rocker panel and some remaining water dripped off. But now I am cautious what caused the water to get there? Should I leave the plugs off or put them back in again? I would say its a good starting point to rip...

Hi everyone, I had an unpleasant encounter today with wet feet. The driver side was completely wet. The most outer part was filled with water which damaged the soft mat. I had to rip it out. The problem is all sealing were dry and I don’t know how the water got into the car. Anyone experienced...

Hi there! Took little longer than expected but here they are fresh from Italy: evocorse dakarzero 16x8 with my old 285/75/r16 BFG. They have ET0. Could be bigger yes. But this way everything is compliant. I like them much more than my former oem wheels. Just wanted to keep you posted. Regards

Thank you both! I have ordered the wheels! Keep you posted as soon as they are mounted.

Thank you! Based on that I have to know from which ET on OEM wheels I am coming from. If later the ET is too wide I get problems with local regulation. So the OEM ET could be A. ET0 (what i have measured) B. ET12 (what my distributer tells me) C. ET30 (what ChatGPT tells me for FZJ80 96)...

Ha same here my man :). On my OEM wheels I have already the BFG KO3s, which I like to stay on 16" size. Thats the last puzzle to solve which ET my original OEM wheels have (ET12 or ET30) to buy the right EvoCorse Dakarzero 16". Cheers

Hi ppc, I am currently in the process of buying my wheels. Last open question is if the OEM wheels are ET12 or ET30 on my FZJ80 96. Would you mind coming back to this? Thank you in advance and best regards.

... indeed they look amazing. Please keep us posted when you have installed them. Can you say which tires you are going to put on? I would have ordered already, but I have problems in deciding whether taking the 16" one (keeping my newish 285 BF Goodrich tires 285 tires) but have the downside...

Nice! IT LOOKS AMAZING! Especially with the black body color and I guess those are the anthracite colored wheels. For my white 80s would be amazing to have the wheels in silver. Lets see how that goes. Much thanks for sharing.

Thank you very much!

Coming back to this thread regarding my current wheel. I’m trying to identify the wheels on my 1996 Toyota Land Cruiser FZJ80. I don’t know if they’re OEM or aftermarket, and I’m specifically wondering if they could be the original wheels with ET 0 (0 offset). I’ve attached close-up photos of...

Oh yeah wow shame on me. I live evocorse it’s our European powerhouse for high quality Offroad wheels and more. The problem: the look with the evo is not as brutal as with yours. They looks amazing. Given the price difference the win on every aspect. I asked the Italians if at some time they...

Ikarus your rig looks amazing! And thanks for sharing your wheels. I now realize that I do not have to import the dirtylife wheels for 2.500 USD, pay additional 900 USD shipping and not to mention taxes minimum of 600-800 USD. I could buy the ones you have much more easily here in Germany -...
