So I think I've messed this up and it's going a turn into an expensive mistake but I'm going to ask incase there is anything I can do before I cut my losses.
I bought some proline desperado rims with masher 2.8 tyres for my truck, I got the ones with 1/2 offset thinking they would be correct ( stupidly i didn't look at my current wheels first) as I wanted a wide stance.
I've fitted them and they clear all my suspension and pivots etc but they rub my body shell at full compression at the front when steering.
its so bad that when the suspension at the front is fully compressed there is basically no steering as there is no clearance and would require a major butcher job to cut the shell away to make room...
I've now looked at my old wheels and they seem to have a full offset hub ie the mount almost flush with the inner edge rather than in the centre ( I've looked and struggled to find any available?).
I've bought some 7mm hexes to replace my 5mm ones but I need more than 2mm extra per side I'm sure. Can I get hub extension's or is there another solution before I sell them on as I really like them and It looks like proline don't do the wheel offset I need and I'm struggling to find any at all....
