What offset wheels do I need?
Hi everyone!

After being a bit quite for a few years I've dropped myself into another Defender project

At the moment I'm running 19" Range Rover Sport alloys with Goodyear MT tyres, but they're not really my style. Also fitted is a fairly large hub conversion spacer.

The resulting stance with the wide arches is quite good looking, so I'd like to keep this look.

If I was to fit modular wheels, for example 16x10 with 285 tyres, what offset would I need to keep the arches filled out? Last thing I want is the wheels sitting well inside the arches and having to buy spacers again

The second option is to keep the Range Rover wheels, but try and swap them for 18" versions. Only reason being the choice of tyres available. Seems you can't get BFs over 18" and I really like them Sad


Any thoughts or ideas appreciated
