Also posted in 'modified vehicles'...

Right, Disco1, i have 285 75 16's ready to fit, but no rims.... i want 8inch wide wheels, i was hoping to get them from Bronco, but they're out of stock for anything up to 2 months...... i need an offset of 0 up to -5mm....

Mach 5's are apparently no longer being made.....

I don't want spacers...... but i'm starting to wonder if i'll ever find wheels to suit what i want....

Any ideas..???

Scorpion may well sell Mach 5's, but with production apparently having stopped, i'm not about to buy them, in case i bend one, and can't replace it...

I'm waiting on a mail from paddocks about their modulars......

try speaking to gwyn here :

he sorted the wheels for my disco when i went for 33 12-50's, can't remember if they were 8 or 10 x15's, but they had a huge offset to avoid the need for wheel spacers.
