Need a Spot
I have a 1989 Montero, I am wondering if there are any interchangeable Wiper Arms, the ones on mine are the straight flat on the end ones, I want the ones that have the hook on the end. Second Question: I would like to change my rims to 16's just for ease of sourcing tires, Is there a interchangeable rim from another vehicle that will work? Thanks in advance for your suggestions and advice.

Perhaps but honestly not sure. Have always been fine finding wipers that work with the OE setup.

When I bought my latest set of AT's I went through the same thought and found that 15" tires are not only easily available (33" & 35" BFG MT and AT tires) but are a lot cheaper than the same tires made for larger rims. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Body Damage is Cool
The GenIII Monteros came with 16" wheels that should fit yours, but unless you're dead set on a specific 16" tire there are more tire choices in the Montero's size range with a 15" wheel.
