SubscriberAdjust the stops until the tyre just clears the arm, it does make a fair bit of difference. I've learnt to live with the turning radius, you certainly have to pick your spot for a U-turn.

Where are you located?
I have a set of disco1 Steelers flipped and hot dip galvanised wearing a set of Bridgestone Muds that have done one Cape Trip which I would consider moving on?
PM if interested

For whatever reason, Disco 1 steels are not weight rated for 130's

SupporterYeah they most definitely are
1300kg per wheel
They have a higher rating than stock (slightly less than Wolf)
Definitely okay

Standard 130 rims (wolf) are rated at 2200kg per wheel, pretty sure disco steelies are not legal on a 130 although some people use them. I guess it’s not really a problem if you’re never at gvm?

i found many wolf rims are only rated to 1150kg
some variants are rated higher....
you need to be particular when looking for the right ones

How can you tell, is it a different part number? I’ve heard of new ones that are called ‘wolf’ rims but aren’t stamped with any part numbers I.e. the ANR..... whatever it is.

SupporterCheck your vehicles axle load rating.
Rear will be usually higher than front.
Divide by 2
Ensure the stamped load rating on wheel is a bigger number.
Simples.
Disco1 Steelies are load rated at 1300kg
So give an axle load rating of 2600kg
Far in excess of any defender axle load rating ever
It’s simples
And that’s just to keep everything legal schmegal
Look at the construction of a D1 Steelie compared to all other defender rims but the HD Wolfs
and you’ll feel safe.
Don’t even get started on running tubeless on tubed rims
