    80 Series looking for some skinnies - Rim and tyre size advice please

    Thanks all, Rob, when I'm back on the mainland I'll send you a message and come say hello. I didn't want to buy new rims if possible, trying to limit costs. Spacers I can handle, with a set of 4 tyres I'll be around £750. Looks like we have a plan. Rob, hopefully we back just before...

    Great picture fbnss, are those on standard 16 x 8's ? Any feedback on how they compare to something like a 285 75 16 - am I mad for wanting skinnies ?

    I'm hoping to put a set on my 80 shortly - need to try and work out what size, I want to try skinnies so was thinking 235 85 16 but won't get those on my standard 16 x 8 rims. About to post for advice in a new thread. Looking forward to better traction !
