1. Replace the tyres to same corner 2. Tighten the studs evenly 3. 23/26psi 4. Ask to Balance the wheel from the centre 5. Explain they are susceptible to death wobble 6. Clean hubs

Thanks Daniel that's an important point. Your steelies look great.

Hi, just bought a jimny myself and wanted some steel rims and new tyres. As I am a complete and utter novice, what advantage would I get from getting the offset wheels compared to standard?

Thanks.

The advantage would be the rims stick out a little wider they make it the stance wider, look better and in theory increase stability. After driving it I don't feel much difference but they do look better.
