Will Samurai Wheels Fit? (Was: Rims)

Confusion is setting in.

Just saw an add with pictures from Vancouver:

These look like stock jeep rim centers. Will the Suzuki Samari wheels fit the early CJ's? That would make searching for them a bit easier if they do.:hurrican: :?

That is Vancouver Canada.R)

 

My thought, too.
From the picture on the site, they look like they do. Guess I'll stop one on the street and check it out.

 

I had Sami wheels on my 59 w/ 9"drums w/out any problem. I really liked the look of them too. Traded them to a member here for larger wheels

 

OK, stretching here, but I remember discussions and photos of wheels from some kind of early Japanese (Suzuki?) "Jeep clone" that were nearly identical to early CJ5 wheels, except they had an extra "6th hole" in the hub, between two lug holes.

 

Back in 1970 or 71 Suzuki put out a little four-wheel drive jeep clone.

looked very simular to my old 2a only smaller. Don't remember what they were called, and only remember that much 'cause a kid I knew back then traded his jeep for it new.

It was a pretty decent off road vehicle, too.
They made 'em about 6 years then quit, then started making them again about 89 or thereabouts. Looked exactly the same as the older ones.

 

Seems like they were FJ-somethings....I'm sure someone else will pop on that knows more about them. I tried a search but didn't find anything.

 

well, I really don't care for the 10 in wide wheels that are one the beastie right now. The Samurai wheels are the closest to stock cj's I've seen that are readily available. Discount Tires carries them for 36 a piece for the white ones.

 

I have used Sami wheel several times. I have a set on my 58 right now with a set of roll around tires in them just so I can move it around to work on it.

LJ30 - LJ80 I read someplace once LJ stood for "light Jeep"

I used my wheels that I had and tires from my Jeep on my Samuria when I had them.
The stock sami wheel(15x5.5) works really well on a flat fender and use a narrow tubless tiresymmv

 

They were called LJ's (Little Jeep maybe?)

I almost bought one I happened to run on to, but I already had too many projects and too little time.

Quick wheel question. Took my stock 16" rims to sand blaster, and found out one is 1/2" wider then the other three. Will this make much diff? They all look the same, one just 6" and the others ar 5.5
