Check the trailer part supply industry like Burquip for rim possibilities.

On 10" wide rims you need about -44 offset, from what I have read. probably why you nedeed spacers. :oldtimer: :mytwocents:

Tyre Porn, Oh my!!

When I went to the old Safari axle on my Sani, I had a problem with my steel 15" rims fitting, where my Sani Mag had no problem. Some steel rims have two "step downs" to the center. The first takes it down to 14", the second to 13", and it's that second step that gets in the way of your caliper.

I then got a set of 8J that only has one step, but only found a set of four. A forum member here said they had a spare one that I could fetch, but I have not got out of town to do that yet.

I m running 33x12.5x15 on a -40 offset, and can see how the 12,5 tyre stands out from the 8J rims. I personally think you should be looking at least at 10J rims if you want to go with 12.5 tyres.
