    wheels for a 95 130

    I must be getting old and stupid

    spent several hours looking for info on the best tubeless rims to get for a 1995 130 and now I'm more confused then ever..

    I was just going to put disco rims on then I read somewhere something about the offset not being good for a 130 ?

    just want something to suit 235/85x16 that is the right load rating and the right offset etc

    what the best wheels to get?

    OEM D1 steelies will likely rub 235/85s on the rear spring mount
    But they are correct load rating and great candidates to change Offset and gal dip

    You can buy 16x6.5 tubeless steel rims of appropriate load rating for defenders a few different designs often lumped together as "wolf" rims
    16 inch Aftermarket Steel Wheels - Paddock Spares

    But I can guarentee that running tubeless on the OEM 16x6.5 tubed rims won't make your 130 swerve off the road into a busload of haemophiliac nuns carrying babies.... in the past I have run as low as 12psi on the above setup withnow dramas and best of all no tube punctures

    And of course
    If you want top of the pops buy a set of Zu rims!
    Zu Alloys for Land Rover Defender - Paddock Spares

    This is all

    white steel rims

    There was a thread around about the white sunraysia rims driven by the mining industry. They have now gone to round holes as the triangular ones were cracking out of the corners. Think this is the link Light vehicle rim cracking - Department of Natural Resources and Mines

    Unsure. All we wanted were tubeless standard wheels for a Defender to take the weight. We run skinny tyres.

    I think mine are Kings or Dynamics, and I think 0 offset. I'll have a look in the morning. From memory, ~$90 each.
