I got the centres cut out and rotated for my 35's and the are 35x12.5. The larger the offset the better your turning circle will be, I like to have the tyres sitting proud of the body work so they get the knocks before the panels. I'll trry and remember to measure them up tomorrow.

Whatever you decide you will need to adjust your steering lock to avoid the exhaust in the drivers side wheel arch (for a 1KZ) and to avoid hitting the Radius arms.

hay mate ROBO on ore from wellington is the best guy to talk to he may have a set of brand new steel rims and may even have some tryers so send him a privite message.
