Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hey there, i was hping someone could tell me what the offset for landcruiser wheels are. I have a patrol but have heard the lancriser ones give a wider track. If anyone can help it would be appreciated.

Cheers

3.5 inches backspaced i think

i know for certain they give more width than the patrol ones. i had patrol ones on the rear of my troopy (due to not having the right rims) and they were narrower

cheers mate ill measure mine up when i get home!! ta

Depends if you are looking at 15 or 16 inch dia and what width as the 15x8 will require 50mm offset away from the hub (i think that is negative offset ....can never remember) to clear the tie rod ends on a cruiser but the 15x7's only need 35mm (and they still interfere with the tie rod boot)
the 16's may vary depending what model they came off..... take a tape measure and a 1200mm (or straight bit of timber) level if they are off the car you can measure it easily even with the tyre on ....

Are you referring to the early Cruiser's? I'm fairly sure they had -13mm offset- that's why a lot of aftermarket 15 x 8's for Cruiser's come with -25mm offset (allows 1 inch track increase).

80 series have zero offset wheels. 100 series have a positive offset.

According to the ROH Application guide the trak 2 rim (the ones everyone has!!) are -22mm offset in a 15x8, -9mm in 15x7 or -13 in 16x8

WHen I was chosing I drew some pictures and did some maths and I'm pretty sure I came to the conclusion the the 15x8 was like having a 15x7 with an extra inch added to the outside edge and the inside edge didn't move.

I would attach the whole thing but its PDF and it won't let me. I found it on the ROH website somewhere!!

cheers guys, i guess all i really need to know is what wheels to get if there are different types. I have a patrol and just want a wider track if i can get it. cheers for all your help.

Legally you can only increase your vehicles track by 25mm, so if your patrol has zero offset wheels (I'm not sure, just using example) then you could only fit rims with a maximum of -12mm offset.
Thats what you'll hear from tyre shops anyhow.
You can get can get rims with any offset you want, eg -100mm.
The most common one getting around tho would be the 15 x 8 cruiser rim with -25mm offset.

cheers mate, thats what i wanted to know, just incase i already have them.
