    Considering there is three of us looking for rims and thats potentially 15 rims and the fact that ROH and Mullins / CSA is only 15 mins away from me if we agree on a set we like i could possibly try and get a wholesale price ??

    I did briefly, but couldn't see any steel wheels, all alloys? There was one which *might* be steel (they don't say) but it had imitation bead lock on it which is unnecessarily flashy for my tastes. However I have just sent them an email to see if they do a steelie, & if so what it's load rating is.

    Worth checking out. I want 6, but I doubt Mullins are going to help, but if they were prepared to do us a batch with the right offset it'd be great.

    PS.
    ANYONE ELSE CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR BLACK STEEL WHEELS? Now might be the time to say so! .

    Cuppa it looks like wheels with a high load rating either have no or pos offset, probably to do with how the weight distribution works across the rim. When i get a chance i'll have a look at my factory alloys and have a look at their offset. What size tyre are you going to run ??

    There is a Mullins 16x 8 1500kg one with a neg 28mm, so I'm not sure that the weight distribution theory holds.
    I'm going to run 265/75LT tyres.

    Edit: your offset requirement may be different to mine? I have a leaf rear end.
