My Landcruiser 100 series is certified for 16x8 OE rims and 285/75R16 tires.
I have a set of 17x8 OE rims from a later model Landcruiser 200 series. And looking to put 285/70R17 tires on them. (Overall same rolling circumference).
Do I need to get a re-certification for this?
Cheers,
Tom.

Your local certifier will be able to take care of that for you. (I'm presuming your vehicle is already certified for other modifications) Cheers Chris |

Thanks Chris.
I also intend to keep the OE 16x8 as a spare - is this OK?
I could get it re-certified on both sets of wheels to use the 16x8 as spare with the 17x8's (as I only have four of these for the vehicle) - is this acceptable?

Hi Tom Yup the spare can be 16x8, just be certain that the tyre size is the same rolling diameter or you may risk damaging a differential. Yes you can get a vehicle certified for 2 sets of wheels, you will need to take both sets with you for the recertification as the vehicle will need to be inspected with both sets of wheels and tyres.
