tyres and modulars

<< < (2/3) > >>

Tyke:
Mart . . . . get up to Simon Services at Warmfield or Ray at 4X41 on Huddersfield road, just past Grange Moor Roundabout . . . . . they're as good as anywhere in our local area . . . . .  they ain't a million miles away and will get whatever you need.



Mods are pretty cheap if you shop about - cash offers without postage charges sometimes works wonders and saves a lot of messing about.

i must agree that nene valley are great. very helpful. get plenty of offset if you want to run larger tyres.

Buddha:
What's the deal with Modulars & offset? - Are there a range of different offsets available?

Tony F:
They have about 1" more offset than standard wheels.

Good news is that the extra offset means you can fit bigger tyres without loosing steering lock. Bad news is that clearance will be tighter.

You can get Modulars from Paddocks for about £30 each (£25 + VAT), buy more than £50 on-line and you get free carriage.

I got my tyres from them too 245/75R16 BFG Mud Terrains for £99 + VAT each.

The picture shows them before my lift, I did a Camel Cut but it still caught the arch due to the standard "Disco leaning to the right syndrome".  All cured now thanks 2"+ springs from Scorpion Racing.

Disco-Ron:
Be very careful if you go for 8x16 modulars, they seem to be mostly available with a +20mm offset, which means there's an awful lot of wheel 'inside' the hub if you get what i mean.. i'm waiting for Bronco to get some -5mm ones in, then i might finally be able to fit the tryes i've had in the garage for 2 months......
