Hi all, (I think I have ask this before but didn't get a clear answer) I'm going to 33 x 12.5 x 15 tyres after my body lift in my 3.1L MU, but I would like to know what offset others are running with. My current rims (I don't know the offset) with 33s rub on the bullbar mounts at full lock. Is this just an issue solved with a more positive offset or the angle grinder on the mounts Any and all help would be appreciated Cheers Chris

Adjust the steering stops. A minus of this though is increased turning circle

Front 15x8 with a neg 30 offset Rear 15x10 with a neg 46 offset And i also got out the angle grinder to the bullbar mounts. they don't rub anymore!

So i need more negative rather positve offsets?
I thought positive offsets would adjust the rim more towards the outside of the guard/wheelarches therefore requiring flares?
Is this right I have Flexi flares to go as well so tyres protruding out from the guards is OK
Sorry,... I have NO idea when it comes to mechanicals

The more negitive off set the more the rim will stick out from the 4wd,
I have to have flares with the offset i have, i needed a 1.5inch flare to cover my tyres
if you want to see the 4wd with them on have a look at the thread "my suspension setup with 33's"

Chris,
I'm currently running 285/75/16 on GQ rims on my '93 MU. Only has about 30-40mm lift only the inside of the back tyres rub a little bit at full articulation, fronts don't rub at all.
