I have pirelli scorpions on them at the moment, 2 with 6mm, 1 with 4mm 1 just on the limit, but i have 3 goodyears in the garden, I can allways come over to you i'm only in Harlow, i'm looking for the same £120 the lot.

Graham,

If you could drop me a PM with a contact number, we can have a chat and I can arrange to pop over and have a look.

It isn't just MoT with the weight limit on the wheels....have a bump and your insurance company might ask questions and possibly invalidate your insurance....

If I change the wheels, I'd let the insurance company know - we've ascertained that Rangie Classic wheels will fit, but does anyonw know if they have a sufficient weight/load rating ?

contact no sent. Graham

ChrisV8:
Lots of posts on this issue, the 110 has a heavy axle loading so most wheels do NOT have the correct weight capacity. The only safe way in my opinion is to use either Wolf or standard 110 wheels, Disco steels are not rated sufficiently high contrary to opinion. As far as alloys are concerned I would only use LR alloys from a 110 or consult a Main Stealer on which are correct, Rangie wheels do not have the right loading as far as I am aware.

Axle weight capacity for a 110 is 1850 kg so each wheel has to have a capacity of 925 kg minimum to not compromise insurance and Construction and Use regs.
