Yeah you are right, nothing in the ADRs but insurance agents pick and choose the rules that suit them. So in the interest of having financial back up it's important not to upset the insurance people.
The insurance agents/companies are bound by Australian Design Rules like everyone else, so they would need to present a bloody good reason for rejecting your claim or insurance policy if you do decide to drive with genuine Nissan 16" rims which are perfectly legal and 4WD rated.

Re: No high profile tyres available 18" Rims

There isn't a lot of clearance with the standard 225/55/18's as it is, so I reckon going to a higher profile 60 series 18" tyre could be troublesome
This was a mistake on my behalf... the tyres were 225/[55/b]R18 instead of the 60 profile.. so i'm sorry for stuffing that up...
With regards to the 16" rims, I solved the problem by actually looking at the tyre placard, rather than taking the tyre guys opinion and seeing that 16" rims are perfectly fine... I then promptly called bob jane and amended my order to reflect a set of 16" rims (load rated as per the X-Trail wheels) and a set of 215/65R16's....
So apologies for the confusion and many thanks for all of your persistence in setting me straight
Hopefully this thread will serve others as well as it has served me
Cheers,
Jeremy
