You would think so...

While the bolt patterns are generally the same (and the same as GM 6-lug stuff), there can be significant differences in the centre bore. Mitsubishi, for example, has a 108mm centre bore, whereas Toyotas are 106. Early GM stuff is quite a bit smaller (in the 90's, mm wise).

So, be careful when purchasing, or have a big enough drill press to do your own centre-boring.

Not really egregious, just stuff on my hard drive:

My B2000 with Isuzu Trooper wheels on it:



Which also made it onto my Pathfinder

I don't mean to sound closed minded, but you either answer Stratos, or you're wrong.

Are you sure that's not Tebow?

My MPV's glove box is the size and shape of a file folder. And handily enough, it contained a file folder with every single receipt issued in its 18 years of life, down to the sales receipt (original owner sprung for the dealer undercoat!). I have since appropriated the concept for my other vehicles, using a plastic folder/pocket deal in the map pocket. Since I DIY everything, I just take my parts reciepts and write the mileage/date on them. If I have to print out a how to or a section of the FSM, that bit goes in the folder too.

I really try to be anal retentive about everything, but it's not my personality, so this keeps all the info in one place without having to fastidiously curate it.

Is it fair to brag about spinning the tires in 3rd gear when your roads are covered with snow 364.31425 days of the year?

Also, if there is an aluminium/copper washer involved, you can use the "hand tight + 1/4 turn" method. Hand tight meaning snugged up, but you're not turning the wrench hard. 1/4 turn being self explanatory, unless you are a metric pedant, then use 0.25 turns.

Came to suggest dumping oil down the storm drain, am leaving satisfied.

On a serious note, my civil engineer friends always remind me that it is better to dump it down a sink/toilet, as that water gets treated.

On a really serious note: Always dispose of waste oil properly.
