Hi Folks

Have a 78 landcruiser with stock suspension, currently looking at a set of Deerfield wheels

6x139.7
15x8
Off set is -26 im wondering will this work with stock suspension?
 
Hello! Say hello to Ireland from me, we have a site in Swords I would frequent a while back and have fond memories of exploring Dublin with my mates over there. Regarding your question, you should target a backspace of 3.5" or less. Be aware with a wider wheel like you are proposing, it will stick out of the fenders if your truck doesn't have flares. I've included a link below to help you with the conversation. Based on your proposal I think you should be fine but definitely worth getting a second opinion.


For reference, I just ordered a set of wheels from Braid for my 1992 FZJ75 and the specs are as follows:
16: x 7"
6 x 139.5mm (5.5" bolt circle)
-20mm offset.

Hope this helps. Also, include your year and model so we have a better idea on what this is going on.

Cheers, James

Hi James,

I live pretty close to where you mention alright, yes no worries the Guinness is awaiting you 😀

Currently I have kzj71 & kzj78 - both are stock suspension set up with the oem extended arches
