offset sierra rims

Post by skez »

does anywhere sell sunrasias in 15inch rims (15x7 or 15x8 f truck) with a decent offset brand new, went to 2 different tyre shops and they said the only ones i could get have zero offset because they are not made anymore or is there a different sort off rim that has decent offset??

Ask around for a shop that sell speedy wheels. I rang my tyre shop and they rand the speedy mob and gave me the quote for $65 a wheel. I quoted the rim name, pcd and offet though as I'd been told the same thing then researched it myself.

Have you considered getting your rims cut and the offset altered to suit you?

You still can get the Speedy 15x7 -15 rim, I bought 5 about 3 weeks ago. I run 31x10.5 Centipedes on them and they do not hit the leaves, in fact have about an inch clearnace at full lock. Got mine for $45 each. Only bad thing is I wanted black, and they were only available in white for Suzuki stud pattern, Oh well they suit my fibreglass roof now.

The tyre shop roiginally wanted to sell me Kings 15x7, with -13 offset. which would have been good enough, but I wanted the extra 2mm. Thats 4mm extra trackwidth :twisted:

Ive had my wheels cut and fliped. $45 each to cut and weld. $50 each to sand blast. $50 to powdercoat.
You could easily just sand and paint them yourself.

cj7 wheels are 15*7 with +3 offset

good for 30 inch tyres if you want them to sit dead level with the guards on a coily or tiny bit in on a WT
