Hi guys - getting to the part where I need to spend money on wheels and tyres - I like the look of sawtooth with 285 75 16 bfg mud terrains - this is for the 300 110 I am building .Do you Know what offset ,ect I will need to order - will I need the extra wide arches - as yet I dont have any arches at all.Are they a noisy tyre ? P.s. The ome springs that are fitted are +40mm.
Any help and advice is greatly appreciated.

mud terrain so noiser (typically) than a slightly more road orientated tyre. Will also increase rolling resistance so will reduce your fuel efficiency.

ome springs? do you mean oem? +40mm would be aftermarket springs
 
oh right ... well makes little difference to the amount yer wheels stick out :p

285 75 16's are pretty much the equivalent of 33's

I have +2" springs and they JJUUUUSSSSTTTT catch on the front on full lock. All depends on your induvidual vehicle though - how much you have it loaded, what rating the springs are blah blah blah

You dont need negative offset wheels, i had my 33's on standard defender rims at first. I fitted wheel spacers afterwards for a wider stance (then wide arches were required to cover the wheel). -32 offset are quite common though. There are some sawtooth copies out there that are considerably cheaper now.
