Tyres and Rims

[old Jack]

I didn't realise that the Pajero had a different offset -- thanks a lot for pointing that out. Definitely don't want to change that! I'll keep my eye out for suitable Triton wheels.

Thanks everyone!

Not all 17" Triton and PB PC Challenger rims will also fit but with any rim you need to check the front brake caliper clearance. Triton rims from 2015 onwards do fit the Pajero Sport as they share the same front suspension and brakes.

Brains trust!

One (hopefully last) quick question.

Are these rims going to work for me:

17" rims off a MQ Triton somewhere in 2015-2018 vintage. Looking at all the wheel-size.com, it seems that they should have a 38mm offset (particularly as the old tyres on them are 245/65R17).

I also think these only came in a 7.5"?

Do I need to worry about load index?

Thanks!

If they are factory alloys from a MQ Triton then they should be 17x7.5 P38.
Wheel load will be fine as the Triton has a higher GVM than the Pajero Sport.

Thanks Old Jack, you're a veritable fount of knowledge!

For replacement tyres have a look at Hankook Dynapro AT-M (Model RF10) XL construction
265/60R18 114T XL
The XL means Extra Load
These are a good compromise between on and off road performance and the XL construction copes with heavier loads when touring.
Make sure you get the XL version.

There is a Pajero Sport getting around my local area running those MQ Triton alloys you have pictured in your link. They look to be exactly what you need. Try one on the front checking brake calliper clearance if you can. Price is good. Good luck.
