Default Wheelsies

After another low-speed "moment" I've decided I need to get rid of my Nankang "ditch-finders". Does anyone know of any 16inch steel wheels with a Jap 4x114.3 stud pattern ?

Haven't the money for decent wheels and tyres and I don't want to get 15" tyres only to replace the wheels in a year or so...

You sure it's your tyres?

I am running some ancient budget rubbish and mines alright, doesn't do anything unexpected. Or it could be my traction control helping out.

Not sure at all tbh but I've had 3 live-axle Mantas and they felt much more sure footed than this. The s12 should be much more planted with IRS.

Maybe I should do the beam bushes first ?

Edit: Anyway, this is what I've found so far;


7J x 38et. COuld have done with a lower offset I think

Same with the F2 incidentally. Offset is approx 45, or so I've read.

if you jack up the rear and undo the mount that has three nuts holding on the rear beam, you will get a goo idea if its Fubar!

Wheels have been paid for! But I can't afford tyres just yet!
