A million apologies for anothr wheel question! I'm abroad with work and will be home at the end of the month so I can't throw them on to see how they sit.
Simple question.....
Will a set of 16x8 with 0 offset fit legally, with tyres, on my series three LWB?

No idea but 16x 17.5 fit on my swb but just rub on the leaf spring strap on full lock. And I mean just. If it wasn't for the polished spot I wouldn't have known.

Many thanks Bobsticle, at the moment I have just the rims but I don't want to put tyres on it before I know for definite. Might shod two of the wheels with some cheap second hand tyres for checking the fitment before I go the whole hog.

They will fit on the back. It's just the fronts that can cause problems. You can always adjust the stops and sacrifice a few feet on the turning circle.
