Done a search can't find the info I'm looking for. What's the ideal Jimny wheel offset with 2 inch suss lift and 235/75 r15 tyres, From research possibly -12 or -13, widen the track a little, not place to much on the kingpins or wheel bearings. Need some advice to clear this up. Cheers |

As a idea I have -13 sunny and all that sticks outside the guards is the tapered edge from the tread to the sidewall ( on mud tires) From memory it was about 6mm from the widest point of the wheel arches to the sidewall of my tires. |

15x7 -0 don't fit, but -13 does. I run 15x8 -23 everyday onroad with 31s, and I have beadlocked 15x7s the. 15x7s fit allot better... |

So a 15x7 - 12 or -13 with 235/75 r15 should be sweet? |

What real difference is there between a -12 and a - 13? Why does 1mm make a difference? I trying to figure out why ppl would make almost the same rim, and the affect it would have on my car. |

Difference in someone measuring it with a ruler or difference in a jig to make rims. Dunno. 1mm will make 1mm of difference. (Don't worry your little head about it) |
