hey everyone! i am soooo glad i found this forum. ive just picked myself up a 92 MU TD auto. i purchased a boost guage for it and it appears to only be running 10psi no matter how much i turn the boost up with the boost controller  anyways.. my question is... what is the offset for the rims on these?? ive been told its +38, +20, 0, -20 im looking at getting some 18" wheels... but having a lot of trouble getting them to fit. any help is much appreciated! |

Just measure the back spacing. This is the distance from a line acroos the inner edges of the rim to the bolt flange. Also the offset is stamped on the inside of the rim. If your tyre dealer cant work it out from there I would deal with a different dealer

I think stock 7" rims are 0 offset, I put +25 8" rims on mine and they stick out about 20mm.

i just had a look on www.1010tires.com ... they have an offset calculator. and going on what u said Yarno, it says that by putting an 8" wide rim on the MU would reduce the inner clearance by 38mm and retract the outter clearance by 12mm! somehow i dont think the standard 0 offset is right  |

I run -19mm (hilux) steels for my offroad tyres on my Wizard

Yeah ok I guess it's -25 (not +25 went the wrong way) that I've got on there but the originals I'm sure are 0 offset. Anyway the -25 is a standard landcruiser offset.

I'm looking at Yarnos avatar and trying to work out how he measures that as "sticking out 20mm"   If you're going to 18" alloys then you might have trouble finding something to fit without re-drilling an existing rim for the truck... most of those are made to fit 4- or even 5-stud cars so 6-stud is probably going to be hard to find. The offset I think from memory is close to 0 on Isuzu rims, but I had a quick search and couldn't find the exact figure. Steve |
