Offset wheels -Something stronger than sunrasiers?

I have got some swampers coming soon for my lux and Im currently running 15x8 sunrasier rims with standard landcruiser offset.
Well with my MTRs on them I have bent two rims so Im looking for something tougher in a 15x8 with maybe one inch less backspace to get the tyres out a bit more for clearance and stability.
I have a set of second air internal beadlock I will be fitting at the same time too.

Can anyone recomend a good strong wheel (or somewhere to buy them)?

The black steel rims on 4wd monthlys Otis look pretty good. They are apparently from Eastern Wheel Works. When I did a search of this forum to try and find their phone number I came up with 3 different numbers does anyone know their number?

Should I not worry and just run my sunnies? Im thinking with a few more inches of sidewall and the second airs in I will be a lot less likely to bend them. But then that means getting my rims cut and flipped anyway if I want more offset.
Paul.

Just find a rim place and get them to put in a stronger centre in. Off Road Industries also make custom rims. I had my rims cut and fliped at a place in penrith, they seem to be strong. He also makes to what you want aswell.

I think cut and flip costs about $40 a rim. I say buy a new set and use the old ones for road tires
