As I posted above - Race Engineering - though depends on your definition of "reasonable"

Alternately, ask Fourbys moorooka if they know anyone.

I no longer have the contact details for the guy I used, however someone in the LROCB may still have his details.

Yes there does seem to be a trend that if you want some flexability in the wider wheel sizes, you need some offset! In the 4WD Monthly custom guide No 25, there was a very nice Defender running 265/75R16 MTZs but needed to have a 1 inch offset! I actually think the offset really makes plane steel wheels look rather good!
