Any wider tyre in a 16" and they are all MT's etc.. drag type tyres..

I don't know the offset now and what I should add the extra 2" An inch on the outside and on the inside would be they way to go, or maybe 2 inches on the inside as I don't mind the stance at the rear.. The fronts on the other hand sit in the guard too much, might look at fixing them up down the track..

Not too sure what the offset is on those things but I'm guessing it'd still sit fine.
