  • 120 2” Lift - Sunraysia Rims Question? Before I spend $$$

    G’day all,

    I’ve been away for a while, sold my 03 at the start of 17, but just bought a low KM 05 which I’ll be picking up next week. In preparation for all the mods I have planned, I decided to run two set of wheels. One for the road, the other for the mud.

    Now, I’ve searched and searched, I’ve manually read through the 120 wheels & tyres section, but I can’t find a definitive answer to my question.

    What is the best offset for a set of 17x8 sunnies? Then, what’s the best size tyre to go with that combo? Now, I’m not stressed about the increase in track, but, I do want to keep it at least looking legal by keeping it just just within the stock flairs of a GXL with a 2” lift.

    Any help would be most appreciated!

    Steve

    The offset required will depend on the tyre size. Plenty of information when you look at it from tyre size selection first.

      Have you considered contacting your local tyre shops for 120 series steel rims? I picked up a set of Prado steelies - traded for $40/rim - bought 5 that day and mounted M/T tyres on them. Just needed to purchase the correct wheel nuts as my original rims are alloys and wheel nuts are different.

        I'm running 17x8 sunnies with 0 offset and 285/75/17 muddies, sticks out a tiny bit.

          Is this with aftermarket UCA's?

          Cheers.

            thinking about going back to stock rims on my 120, question is will 265/70/17 tires rub? currently my steel rims have a different offset but as i need new tires soon i think id rather the alloys (second set of rims/tires). Got informed recently about how the steel rims have a gap and all the wheel nuts are taking the load.

              You are running 34" tyres?

                With a 17x8 +10 offset rim you can go up to a 285/70R17 an be flush with the GXL flares, +5 offset is still legal in NSW but will be just marginally proud of the flares.

                My offset is +6 on 17x8.5 alloys and 285/70R17:
