Anyway, here it is all standard looking just after i bought it. Need to get it looking a bit more aggressive but don't have huge amounts of money and i need to keep it practical for every day use as well.- dan74

So i found a place here that sells 16" modular steels at 7" wide with an offset of ET30. According to the chart that is just a tiny bit over 5" backspacing so they should fit just fine. The same shop recommended I put 235/70 Insa Dakar MT tyres and offered me a good priced package. Assuming...- dan74

So am I right thinking that 7" wide with 4" back spacing effectively gives 3" of outside dish with 1" outward poke compared to stock 5" back spacing? I don't mind running 235's if it means a more comfortable fit- dan74

When you say 8" is too wide, are you referring to manufacturer guidelines for 245 tyres? I currently have a set 235/70/15 Roadians stretched onto a set of 8.75" extended rims on my VW T4, manufacturer charts say no but in reality it's absolutely fine and there are no issues whatsoever. I...- dan74

Thank you! Ive decided to go for 16 x 8" steels with ET00 and the tyres will be Insa Turbo Dakar mud terrain 245/70/16. Will this set up be OK on standard suspension ride height?- dan74

Primarily I have bought this for use as a family vehicle, but would also like the option to be able to test it's capabilities off the road too. My first question for you is going to be wheels and tyres. Here in the...- dan74
