Thread: Best wheel offset, tyre size, D2A.

Dont flame me!...I used search, and good oil, and most of the links arent working. I dont know why.

Im about to buy steel wheels for the D2A and camper, to run as big a tyre as I can, on a 2inch lifted D2A. Tyre will be an aggressive A/T. Wheels will be 16", either cynamic, or possibly zu alloys. I have an arb bar on the front, and will be replacing the plastic skirts with steel steps once the tyres are sorted. I also have some of those standard D2a black wheel flares.

I had thought the biggest you could go, without a serious door trim, is 32". But I am told 32.5 will actually fit. I am also thinking slight offset (out) to keep my turning circle. (for the record, im not averse to a slight trim, but I dont want to hack the door)

So, best tyre width/offset/tyre combo please.

Edit:

Actually, using google I was able to track down some of the threads here:

Still seems to be some inconsistency about whether 33" tyres might fit?

But appears the answer is Dynamic 16 x 8 with a +30mm offset, and running a 32-32.5" tye

Walker may have some ideas???
