Im looking to put some 265 BFG A/T's, possibly 285's on them but not sure if they will require spacers, also they look pretty identical to the twisted ones, are they the same?

cheers

got a set ordered, should arrive next week, i went for the 265/65/18 BFG A/T's last minute instead of the 285's, hope that turns out a good choice. The guy at TMD said they have no problems with this wheel/tyre on their 2" lowered defenders so should be good on my standard setup.

I'm 90% sure the offset is ETA10.
I think they are also called Max Trac Manta wheels

They're from Silverline wheels and they're available in various different offsets and colours:

im a little confused, i thought the silverlines were exclusively sold through twisted and these manta Nero's(as called by tune my defender) basically look the same but cost alot less. Is this exactly the same wheel as the twisted ones?

cheers

Twisted performance wheels are NOT the same as the Manta wheels.

Previously, the twisted performance ones were available through silverline, but now only available through Twisted.

Now Silverline sell Manta wheels which are very similar.

Silverline licenced the original Sport wheel to Twisted on an exclusive deal, a short while later they introduced the Manta wheel to fill the gap in their range. Looks really alike Shocked

i thought silverline manufacture the wheel and sell through twisted from reading other posts. Anyway thanks for the clarification - i cant really tell a difference in the look of the wheel between the Manta and twisted, im sure there will be a subtle difference somewhere, they both look nice.

I tried to get a quote for a set of wheels from twisted but no reply to my email enquiry for a quote but from what others have said i think the twisted ones may have some issues balancing and at ~twice the price(im guessing from others posts) maybe not the best option.

Did you try Alive I know Gary offered me a good deal on a set if 18inch Mantas with Cooper Zeons but I'm almost sure I'm going to bite the bullet and go the Bowler route. However I do love the look of the Mantas with 285 Zeon LTZ tyres!!

I was thinking the same but the wee valeter we use says he can take care of them, they can't be any worse than the wheels on the wife's A4 Cabriolet Laughing Laughing
