WHEELS SPACERS....no thanks ...I need other options.

Post by TANKSLAPPA »

I have a dual cab hilux and want to find out where I could buy extremely offset rims as I dont want to use spacers. I would imagine that it would need to have minimal backspacing. I saw a sunraysia once which was so so offset but im thinking it was custom. Any help would be great thanks.

hi mate

wheels with huge negative or positive offset are much more prone to bending out of shape, they can get impossible to balance very quickly.

if your going to give your truck a hard time and then expect to drive homw all the time, you may be in for some nasty suprises from time to time.

this is one benefit where the wheelspacers shine :)

Crazy offset rims also put extra stress on your wheel bearings as the load is no longer centered over them. massive offset is also illegal as you probably know.

If you buy some 15x8 sunnies, you can un stitch the centre and get them re-welded in backwards, Just another option.
