-24 is supposed to be cruiser offset

but many folks run them on hilux and even zukis

the tyre shop I work in, buys all 8" wide steelies for the same price regardless of what offset they are, so I don't know where hes getting his from

Check the offsets of the f100 also might find one to suit your needs.

Ford F100. Sorry, they are a ford ute.

Seen rims for around the $80 buck mark before(was a while ago mind you), I'd shop around if I were you.

On my 1600 SWB i run 15x8's with a -10 offset. Got them through Beaurepaires at agood price, and the brand is 'Speedy'. You'll probably find a -24 gives you too much rub on large steering inputs due to the greater fore and aft swing factor. I tried some new 30's on 15x7's the other day with about a -24 offset, and couldn't use them.

best to shop around

you walk into my work in welly and they would cost ya about $95 each, so I would shop around to see who's cheapest.

Quality doesn't mean anything when you're going to use them off road, go for the cheapest. :!: :!:

look on TM as well
