Planning to go down to 17 and would probably go 265/70/17 just like you but I will not be upgrading my shocks nor add a liftkit. Would the tires fit my MUX without any hiccups such as turning from left to right?

Thanks Nick - good to see. The Atturo Trail Blade being fitted - will be interested in hearing your impressions after 50k km. Putting aside the look factor - are the rims worth it? Presumably you could have gotten tyres for the standard rims to give you the 1.6" boost? I'm not having a go at the look factor - they look stunning, the question is about function.

@LowRangeNick

5 жыл бұрын

If you put the look factor aside the only advantage realy is that the rim is wider and has more offset so in theory it should give slightly more stability and a larger tyre footprint when it is deflated. So far the tyres are good! They are noisy but thats to be expected with an aggresive M/T. Keen to give them a really good offroad test soon! 😊👍

Hi nick i was looking at the FUEL wheels for my mu-x but couldn't decide on the "offset" as word had got around cops had started pulling over 4wds with excessive wheel/tyer offsets as certain states deemed illegal. So in your opinion whats the best offset and how did the new wheel -tyer combo fit in the spare wheel well. thanks,

@LowRangeNick

5 жыл бұрын

Hey Matt! The 17x8.5 7.4mm offset fits really well. It is completely under the guards on the front and sticks out on the rear only about 5-10mm. That is with these tyres which have a really aggressive sidewall tread. I havnt upgaded the spare tyre yet but will eventually. Thinking of keeping the standard rim and putting a 265/70r18 tyre on it as my spare. Apparently you can just get enough room to fit a 265 spare underneath. If you have a towbar you need to deflate the tyre a bit and pull it against the towbar as much as possible to clear the rear panhard and diff etc. Hope that helps 😁

They are the only rims on the car so they go off-road, highway, around town. Everything. These rims are Fuel Off road Rims specifically made for off road vehicles. It is a common misconception that steel rims are the way to go when choosing off-road rims. Most of the alloy rims you will see broken are factory alloys which arent up to the task when it comes to off-roading. You would have to be doing something seriously stupid to do any damage to one of these :P

Standard LS-U rims, even my original tyres did it but now I’ve put 265/70R17’s on it’s quite bad, I like to run my tyres at about 15 on the soft stuff so it scrubs a fair bit.
