Wheels with offset? no need for spacers
Hi all,
I'm planing to upgrade my wheels and i'm looking for Direct fitment with off set,I mean no need for the use of spacers for 245/75/ 16 or 265/75/16 tyre. Any ideas and photos of wheels with no spacers and same tyre measurements? Also what off set should i look for?

For a defender you want an ET0 wheel.

Nice Thumbs Up

Very reminiscent of the rare FC and 1 ton rims.

Those Nakatenga wheels look nice. If they were -25 offset you could get me into trouble.

The guys at Raptor have a special Wolf wheel with ET0 offset, but still 16x6,5.

IMO, genuine LR steel wheels are the nicest looking ones. I moved away from Wolfs because I wanted a 8j width and ET-25 offset

I like those Naka wheels and with 255/85's I reckon they would look killer on my 200tdi - shame I just bought a set of Wolfs with 235's Whistle Rob

without the offset on these are there any issues with rubbing on a stock series 3 if you put on a fatter tire? like a 265 or 285/75r16 ?

Several weeks later but as no-one has replied….

I would say yes you will almost certainly get bad rubbing if you go up to 285/75/16s on zero offset You will need 30mm spacers with those tyres. Haven’t read the whole thread but you will also need 7 or 8’’ wide rims to fit those tyres on.

I run Bowler 16s (ET+10 I think) with 285/75/16 and have 30mm spacers. Without the spacers, they rub badly. With spacers, no rubbing. The spacers will also improve your turning circle.
