iirc the dimma had a standard width beam (with massive TBs and ARB) with huge offset wheels.
The Maxi however had a wider beam which you can buy in bits from Peugeot Sport for about 10k i think it was.

So the most economical way to run a dimma rear kit would be with mahoosively offset wheels?

There was a guy on the 6 forum from fareham selling massive spacers for the dimma.

I would say that most people would run the biggest offset wheels with the biggest spacer that could

If you can find any wheels with a negative offset then with adapters your going to be close. Probably have to go for "drift" wheels. Im running -20 all round on the estate.
