8 inch will be ok pretty sure they are usually only 7" on standard alloys.

Hi there

I have 265/75/16 on standard rims and a 2" lift, they fit fine.

I have 265/70/16 on my standard rims, had to do the camel cut for them not to rub, as I don't have a lift, and also needed to adjust bump stops to stop them rubbing on full lock - now I need to make a 30 point turn

Are there any wheels you can get with a different offset as to prevent this without causing any problems etc, as don't really want to go down the 'spaces' route?

Hi Roger, 8" rims will be perfect.

Type 'Land Rover Extreme Offset' into eBay and you should find a guy selling 16x8 and 16x10 modular steels with 30-50mm greater offset than a normal modular steel.

I've got 265/75/16 Insa Special Tracks on 7" modular steels fitted to my D1 300 Tdi which has a 2" lift and have had to camel cut (I hacked away quite a lot of other bodywork as well to fit an arch kit).
