hey mate love the look, what offset are you running on those sunnies??

You might want to look at the date that was posted

you might not get a reply

[ag9111]

Daying that.
I would say they are 8" rims with about a +20 or +15 offset

similar to my play rims

Blue still visits, sometimes, Garth. Doesn't have the Triton any more though.

Thanks mate how is the rubbing with that offset?? and the handling of the extra weight of the sunnies??

[ag9111]

No rubbing at all even on standard suspension.

The steelies weight 17kg each and when combined with heavy muddies screws the ABS up big time.
Handling with the muddies was always going to be a compramise and they effect the handling more than the rims

Have a look in my shed for more photos. They are pretty crappy and I will see if I have some better ones

nice rig mate need to get around to build my shed i am looking at getting 265/75r16 BFG AT KO2 on 16x8.0 king steel rims with a +25 offset.. hoping they won't rub tire place wants to do a test fit as they think they will rub...

and what do you mean screw with ABS???

[NowForThe5th]

No, they won't rub, even with +25 offset. Like others I'm convinced that the ML/MN was designed for a 265 tyre (like the MK was and Challenger is) and the 245s fitted were just a cost saving measure.

What he means by "screw with the ABS" is that the extra unsprung weight of a steel wheel and bigger tyre stops the ABS from working properly. Essentially the brakes aren't powerful enough to stop the heavier wheel from rotating, so you don't lock up and the ABS, with no lockup detected, never comes in to effect. Been known for a long time but people just ignore it for the sake of saving a hundred bucks on an alloy wheel.

[ag9111]

They will not rub even at full flex and steering rotation.
ABS doesn't work as well with the extra weight. You need more presure on the brake pedal. The KO2's will help as they are not as heavy

[ag9111]

Beat me Chris and a much better explanation.
Thank you

[ToughTriton]

cheers guys for such quick responses with the +25 offset will that sit flush with my flared guards???

even so i have booked in for tuesday to get rims and tyres will take pics and then build my shed then

[ag9111]

They will sit pretty flush, but it all depends on the individual tyre as some bag the sidewalls more than others.
My +15's I think are the perfect offset, so much so that I have now purchased a set of +15 alloy rims for my play set and I will be moving the steelies on to a new owner

[chardy]

A bit late but this is mine with stock everything except the KO2s in that size, no issues!

[ToughTriton]

Thanks guys..
I ended up getting the sunnies 16x8.0 with +20 offset with 265/75r16 KO2's and they are perfect took some convincing with the tyre place but they were surprised the actually fit without rubbing perfectly..
Thanks guys for quick responses

[mIwoo]

on a side note can you guys put your opinions of the new Ko2 in the tyre thread please?
