Where are there negative offset 16" rims?

I have a set of 16" rims with 265-75-16 tires. My rims have a zero degree offset. I like the way the "P" series tires handle on my car and really don't want to go to another size. I want to replace the rims with something with less backspacing. As far as I can tell nobody makes a rim with less than 4" to 4.5" backspacing. ?:? All I want is a little more dish.

All I can think of is having some steel wheels made in a custom Backspace. Is that a option for you? What type of wheels are you hoping to run?

It would also help to know the rim width since a 265 can handle a range of sizes.

I would assme that all of the 1-piece 16x8 wheels you linked to are the same casting or forging with the same amount of dish, where they achieve the various offsets noted (0, -13, -19, -22, etc) by just machining the mounting pad to the various specs. If you want a custom wheel with maximum dish, I'd start looking at 2-piece wheels.

Centerline has and will also customize. May be tough finding styles you like, though.

I doesn't seem to make any difference. One or two piece. All I can find have zero offset. ?:?

Stockton wheel in Stockton CA. will make up anything you need. Could be a little expensive. I bought original 6 bolt 15" Chevy rally style truck rims from them that were changed to 16". The rims are now the correct size for 285 75 16" tires.
