right I need to buy rims for my surf project, but can only go to a maximum of 1950mm wide( cuz thats how big the trailer is....) going to run 35/11.5 /15 silverstones, so if you know what your offset and rim size is could you have a quick measure up please?

specificly im looking at 15x8 in a -19 offset that Ill probably get beadlocked..Thanks Alistair

Next time you have a tape measure handy are you able to measure overall width?

Taz , He's asking about the Safari not what you're packing mate..
hahaha

My just measured 1980mm (got , So not much change from 2 Meters.
15x10 -44 offset , Maxxis Big horn 33x12.5 .. Sidewalls of the tyres buldge a bit more than the rim, see how your tyres mount ?..
Maybe just drive over the trailer?

1950mm is a reasonably wide deck, if you dont fit on its a bit of pissing about but you can have a couple of skinny little wheels to throw on one side of the truck to get it to fit on the trailer, its a bit of farking around but it works, if thats still too wide you'll have to get 4 skinny wheels to do it :x :lol:

yea shes a decent size trailer, i think when the oldman built it the edges of the guards were about as wide as you could go legally..trying to avoid "trailer wheels" if i can
