Zero offset helps return the scrub radius to where it needs to be.

Would not the offset rims be better for the wider tyres, or do you think you can get away with it?

To far and they really scrub on the back of the flares when turning on the front wheels.

That is what I found with Toyo Cruiser rims.

Is that not mostly caused by the larger tyres eg: 33x12.5 as stated?

Well I tried them on 285/75/16 and 255/75/16. both in BFG MT and both measure taller than 33 x 12.5. The 285 being about an inch narrower, and the 255 being more than 2 inchs narrower.

They were however both on 8 inch rims.

31x10.5 will fit the standard Pajero 15x7 rims without any trouble.
