WOF and cert guidebook says minimum 8.5inch, but practical experience is that 8inch are great but potential WOF issues if they're fussy. Definitely won't get a cert if you need one in future with 8in. Backspace of 100mm at least (0 offset) but a bit more is good. 10in rims look nice but will allow shit in the beads and tyres will come off at low pressures. 8.5 rims would be hard to find....
