I am hunting for some rims for my 70, im looking ideally for some 7 or ideally 8j x 16 steel rims as i was thinking of 285 75 16's. But its seems to be a struggle finding any!

any ideas where i can get them?

I have got a couple of sets of allys but the ofset is wrong and i dont want to use spacers

what ofset rims do people run? im quessing they are going to need to be 0 or negative a bit?

BTW i dont want a wheel hanging out of the arch a mile, the lanes in devon feel narrow in a Suzuki SJ! well the lanes i like anyway :twisted:

thank you in advance
 
I've got a set of 285/75/16's on my 78 ... but they rub a bit on full lock (i've gotta get some spacers for mine)

name rings a bell mate are you up abbotskerswell way .... :thumbup:
 
Hi

I have a standard set of steel 70 rims. I think they are 15s if i remember right though.

I will have to check if your interested.

Thanks
 
Silverline in Warwick 01926-496668 do an 8x16 with a 32mm neg. offset in either black or silver modular steel.

Thats for the clues on the wheels i will make some enquirys, i'll have to buy some lift springs too soon :sick:
