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.

You may find you can now buy Ti mags 16"x8" at a very cheap price.
I paid $90 delivered from Ballarat for my trailer mags
Off set is the only downer

That's what I have now and am replacing. They will not work on my camper.

Confirming you want Neg13 not Pos13 like your post says?

The Nissan factory rims are 16x8 Pos10.

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.

Definitely want positive 13 or as close as possible.

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.

I reckon you want some Nissan factory steelers mate in 16x8 pos10. I figured it might have been stud length on the alloys.

If I could find some then they would be fine.

so the 14mm studs would be from the 100s and the thread would be 14mm x 1.50
Noticed super cheap sell them as well

Hi mate, i musta missed something... Pos 13 on a 16x8 and pos 13 on a 16x7 won't change

Offset is offset... so a 265 on an 8 inch rim will sit in the same place as if it is mounted on a 7 inch
You haven't changed the track and you haven't changed the tyre width

If going from say 265 to 285...
If there is an issue with side wall clearance you would only need to change offset x 1/2 the tyre width change
IE to keep the side wall in the same position relative to a guard and you increase the tyre width by 20mm then you only increase/decrease offset by 10mm
The other thing is that the other sidewall will change by a full 20mm tho

Yes you are correct mate. Sorry i was mistaken. You should have seen me trying to draw that in the air this morning at the dining table. :p

So is it a stud issue or offset to fit a patrol rim?
If studs are a couple of new hubs in budget? You'll just need to know axle bearing size..

I have a set of 3 rims but in 15inch.. cannot remember the offset right now but are suited to rodeo or hilux and was going to use them on my trailer but not sure if I still will..

Otherwise ask me what size you want and I can order them for you at very special mates rates... maybe a set of fully sick alloys.
