[fatcat]

Hi Guys,

i have recently put a spare wheel mount on the bonnet and i need a new rim and tyre.

Tyres are 7.5r16

Would this size rim and tyre fit my 02 Defender.

This tyre is much skinner than my other would that be ok to use in the Simpson


thanks

No, I think the bolt pattern is different, but you should be able to check yourself,look at your wheel and compare with the photo you posted

The bolt pattern and PCD are the same so it should fit.

yep, but make sure its a vehicle and not trailer/series rim as they dont have the load rating. Also the offset may be different.
