Ere Pikey

(or anyone else)

I have read your link to the tyre and wheel bible and fell asleep at the bottom of Page one - and carried out a comprehensive search....

i have a set of 4 16*7J 5 spokes spare, but want to fit 235/75 Tyres - there must be a relationship between wheel width and tyre width - but 235mm = 9 inches (or so).
How can I find out what size rims I need for 235 tyres (will the 7J rims be OK?)?

eyup daft, do a search

seariously i had 235/85 r16's on standards alloys, they can take up to about a 270ish tyre. 285's 8j's are reccommended.

235's will fit no problem. I found that the ones on my std Disco steelies scrubbed on full lock but the ones on my Modulars don't scrub. So offset is probably more important.

oh yes - offset - is that written on rims?

Don't think so. but a straight edge across the back of the rim & a tape measure will tell you what it is.
