Which wheels?
Im getting a set of winter tyres for the car, probably 265/70/16....

Im after a set of black modular wheels to put them on. I've spent a while reading up on offsets etc. but really have just confused myself more Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

Can anyone recommend somewhere to get a set of black modulars, at a reasonable price, that will work on a 110 USW with un-modified suspension with these tyres Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

Thanks!

Yes. Standard alloys are only 16 x 7 and 265's fit on them fine. Darren

I agree, they do look good, but i've somewhat lost control of the budget for getting the truck ready for Norway so am being made to economise! Especially as I already have a decent set of black alloys on the truck, and these are just for the tyres specifically for the trip.
