looking at putting mags on l200 rwd, seen some on tm off 4x4, are the centers bigger on 4x4 rims! and would it matter if they were! cheers

I'm not sure about Mitsi, but yes, it will matter as it's the centres that hold the rim on, ie. take the load. Wheel nuts only clamp the wheel to the axle.

Center bores don't really matter unless you are doing race track work/ carting heavy loads or rough 4x4 bush bashing
Oh come on guy's, think about it, how many cars prior to about 1980 (1990 even) had center bore matching as a compulsory safety measure from factory.

Rubbish, they also CENTER the wheel (tapered nuts & tapered holes) If all they had to do was hold the wheel on, then the manufactures wouldn't have bothered designing secure tapered holes & nuts & probably just used flat plate holes & spring washers
Just to add confusion, why would manufactures make a hub centric wheelthat wasn't also lug centric, considering that if they are both different, then BOTH would fight against each other placing too much stress on the rim mounting face & studs
Mitsi six stud wheels should be interchangeable,whatever the diameter.Would recommend trying first, though.
