What do you mean by "wheel hub bolt offset"? Do you mean pitch circle diameter?

If so, it is 165.1 mm.

If not, then I have no idea what you mean!

Hi Blackwolf, clearly I’m a novice, I want to change the alloy wheels but when I have been trolling through websites there are different codes ref the comparable models each alloy would fit, which I have been told this is the bolt offset? Or the distance between bolts.....help?

Ah, ok. You need wheels with centre to fit 5 studs on 165.1mm PCD. This will ensure you can bolt them on.

You next choice is rim diameter, width and offset. Diameter and width are self-explanatory and the offset is a measure of the distance between the hub mounting face of the wheel and a vertical plane through the centre of the rim. Together these determine what size tyres you can fit.

Standard Landrover wheel are 16 inch diameter, around 6.5 inches wide, and have a +33mm offset, which means the centre of the rim is 33mm inboard of the mounting face.

There's quite a lot on the forum about choosing wheel sizes.

Good luck!
