Thread: Rims/tyres for Series

Hi Adam
Series 1 Disco steels are a common wheel used,they give you an inch off-set plus they are 7 inch wide.
A good source of 7.50 X 16 tyres are trade ins at larger tyre dealers,they are brand new, ex tojo and nisin utes which have had wide wheels fitted and usually have delivery k's only.
You can get them at up to 1/2 the price of new ones.
Cheers
Andrew

Adam,

FC rims, 130 rims, Steel Disco Seris I rims will all fit a series.
Not sure about the width of the others but Disco Steels are 7 inch wide which may be too wide for many 750x16 tyres. 750 tyres are usually up to 6.5 inch rims (130) so have a look at manufacturer's rim/tyre fitment specs.

I have Disco Steels on the Turtle with 235/85R16 BFG TracEdge tyres. 235/85 are very close in rolling diametre to 750's but wider. The extra width of the rims is to the outside giving you a slightly wider track...

Try motorway tyres they sell them

www.motorway-tyres.com.au

about $90 each fitted and balanced 7.50x16
