Hi guys,
Just want a round about price for brand new 16x7 steelies.
I would like to get some Prado steelies, but there just don't seem to be any around.
Cheers,
Daniel

16" rims cost more so they will be closer to $90. Think I paid $92 for 16x8 roh rims about 5yrs ago and I dont think they have gone up.

Dynamic 4x4 (Vic) have just brought in a new line of steel rims that are well priced...worth a look.

Most places sell 16x8 not 16x7 so unless there's a specific reason for wanting 16x7 then get 16x8 steelies.
16x7 alloys are pretty common on pajeros and stuff anyway.

What is the prado offset?
I've been pricing rims lately, looking at -20 to -25 offset, 16 x 8 sunnys in black or white are around $115 to $120 ea, 16 x 8 alloys range from $220 to $250 ea for something from Advanti, CSA or Performance wheels, and if looking for some real bling Eagle alloys (USA) anything from $330 ea and upwards.

not sure what the offset is, just ask suppliers for the prado offset and they give me a price for the particular requirement.

I paid less than that for 16x8's so again why would you want 16x7? 16x7 are only approved to run much narrower stuff (think 255 wide is about max).
unless you're limited to a maximum width due to some regulation (maybe cos of your original rim size) go the extra 1" wider.

I understand the Prado offset is uncommen so less volume = higher cost

Cost me no more for -25mm. From memory they were $90.
Much better than secondhand GU steelies (which ridiculously go for over $200 despite the cracking issues).
Got similar quotes for secondhand prado steelies - aboit $150 each.
