Recently I got a used set of XZL's and am sorting through my rims. I have gone through numerous posts here on the forum about tires and rims and am still not certain which rim to use so I thought I would throw up the bat signal. I suspect the question has been asked before (beaten to death) but I throw myself on the mercy of the forum and ask for clemency.

I have a '75 Series III 88" and in my inventory I have the following rims with the following markings:

NPC 7578 x 2
231601 x 4 (1" offset probably not a good choice)
FV738903 x 2
550Fx16x33 x 4

Wondering if anyone had any experience with the XZL's on any of these rims and advice?

Someone had a link to a chart with the offsets for each but the link no longer works. If anyone has that and wouldn't mind sharing that would be helpful.

In advance I thank for you for your assistance!

This first 2 picture are standard Land Rover rims with a very heavy duty M-tire in the same size your tire

The next 3 pictures are XZL tire on a Land Rover Rim, with a deeper of set.

The XZL wear real fast. Only run them for off trips


I would buy more of the large off set rims, for off tires, as it give the rover a wider profile.
