Quick post after spending a day listening to most of my local tyre shops telling me that offset rims for defenders don't exist, yes had more than one shop say that.
I need -25 16x8 steel rims, cheapest local price I got quoted after they admitted they did exist was around 150 per rim which is ridiculous when you can buy steel sunnies for patrols and cruisers for 80 or 90
I know dynamic makes them, who else does??
I have bought steelies from LRA automotive before and had them sent up north for this exact reason (local incompetence) not sure what brand they are. Any other suggestions
King? Procomp? terrafirma?
What prices are they if they make them
Thanks Andrew

I just bought that same size, made by dynamic. From memory $110 each.

If you're not in a rush, order them from the UK. I was quoted $150 per rim for 16 x 7 steel modulars, PLUS $100 per rim for freight to Cairns from Sydney = $1250 for 5. I had 5 sent over from the UK for around $800 total. They took 6 days to arrive. Grab a LR magazine, or try eBay UK. If you're after them here, $150 per rim seems the average price.

Wow, I was looking at 15 x 8, and the jump in price to 16 is huge.

pretty sure I have a set of 5, brand new.
if you are interested, I'll double check.
I'm in Sydney though - maybe someone heading north over Christmas might take them up for you?

King wheels make a 16x8 steelie in the Defender stud pattern, but it is zero offset so won't be what you're after...

I had a set of standard disco steel wheel off set by eastern wheel works. They works a treat.
