Defender Wheels Offset/Backspace help

robinwelch1000 · Jul 2, 2013

Hi All
After some advice for my new STT 265 65 16's going to put them on black modular but unsure on what I need for correct offset/backspace.

I know I can go for 7" wide rather than 8

I want to keep the outer edge of tyre inline with standard fender outer edge of plastic arch.

Can anyone offer any advice

Thanks, robin

I have 16x7 - 0 offset 8 spokes on my 90 and the outer wall of the tyre sits a few mm outside of the plastic arch. My old alloys were 16x7 - +33 offset and they looked pants. Sat way too far inside the arch and rubbed like crazy on full lock. So, if you want them to sit level then 0 offset or close to that is what you need.
