Rim width on toys

Post by NIK »

Ive finally decided to make the switch to hilux diffs. At the moment im running wt diffs spoa with 8 inch rims on a lwb. When i change to hilux how much wider will it be? What size rims sould i run im looking at running 33s. I have wt flares with flexi flares atm that just cover 32s. Any thoughts and suggestions would be great.

So if I run 8s do I just get hilux rims or do I have to specify a certain offset? Thanks for the info guys.

standard 8s should be fine unless you want more width and then you could have the centres flipped to gain a bit more

Thanks cutzook, im not really after more width just didnt want to be too wide to cover with flares without looking silly and attracting unwanted attention from the boys in blue.
