Hey guys, looking at some new rims for my camper trailer.
Need then in either 16x8 or 16x7 and as close to +13 offset as I can get. Hoping for a black sunraysia type wheel to match the car.
I have some 265/75R16 tyres to go on them so just looking for the rims.
Only need 3 rims and happy to buy new if I have to, but don't want to spend a lot of money.
Long shot but if anybody has something lying around please let me know.
Otherwise if you know a brand that does them in that size and offset please let me know also.
Confirming you want Neg13 not Pos13 like your post says?
The Nissan factory rims are 16x8 Pos10.
Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!! ....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever. WARNING: Towballs used for recoveries can, and do kill people and damage property.
I would also encourage you to fit 285s to the camper so your camper three match your car tyres. Then your carrying 2 spares whenever your touring with your camper.

I already have the 265s and buying new tyres at the moment I not really an option
So a Pos10 and a Pos13 is different by 3mm only. Why won't the factory Nissan rims work? Your chasing factory Nissan steel rims then I reckon.

Note also that a Pos13 in a 16x8 will be something like a Zero in a 16x7

Correction. It will be something like a Neg12 in a 16x7 assuming thou want the tyre to sit in the same place in relation to the outer guard?

He trailer has 14mm Toyota stud, Nissan's are 12mm so the special nuts for those rims will not fit.
I cannot get 12mm studs for the trailer and I cannot get 14mm nuts for the rims.

That is a good call, didn't think of that though. I think 16x7 with a 0 offset will be much easier to find.
