Hi
It appears every man and his dog manufacture "Wolfe style wheels" Bearmach, Terrafirma, Brit part etc
An put the part number ANR 4583PM on them. Are all there weight ratings the same as the genuine? Doesn't appear to be the case, some are only rated at1050kg
These are going on to a 1996 130 dual cab. So they need to be rated to 2200kg right?
Will I need longer wheel studs to fit?
What about King / Dynamic Mine spec wheels, these are rated 2200kg. Anyone got these?
Where is the best place and price in Sydney to purchase? Karcraft, KLR ?
Cheers guys

Hi there. I bought my genuine wolf wheels from Landybitz (here in Oz). They have special on at the moment $179 ea (black). They are stamped with 2200kg. I can send pics if you want. Yes you WILL need the longer studs. I got from UK bearmach or rimmer bro, can’t think at the moment. I also got the nuts from Landybitz. It doesn’t matter if the wheels are rated higher if you axle / suspension is rated lower, you must not exceed your vehicle load rating. I just wanted strong wheels so replaced the alloys with the wolf. Let me know if you need more info etc.

Yes I was also going to suggest Landybitz, I thought their price delivered for a set was cheaper than anywhere else.

KLR $165 (choose colour) but, I assume, plus delivery. "Wolf" Tubeless 16" Rim - Choose Colour - KLR Automotive (https://klrautomotive.com.au/wolf-heavy-duty-rim/)
