land rover alloys

[s410man]

does anyone know what alloys from what vehicles in the land rover range will fit a 1996 land rover 90

a lot of the range rover ones seem to be nice but i dont want to maste a few hundred only to find out they dont fit

thanks

I would think RRC or Disco 1, probably worth asking on one of the LR forums?

 

[madkayaker]

or ask someone like craddocks

ill try gumtree as i know a boy who works there

just saw a set on ebay which i thought looked nice

ill messgae him and ask for the centres

what i cant believe is that some of the rr aloys are £2000 plus

my vehicle is only worth a bit more than that

Those will be for the latest RR's so definately won't fit!

wasnt thinking of spending that much on wheels but why couldnt land rover just keep the same centres

would of made it a lot easier

Disco 1 = 200tdi / 300tdi and V8 ,
Range rover classic ,

DONT FORGET you can get convertion plates to fit the range rover P38 rims on to older defenders / discos from some of the big 4x4 shops/ specialists

Have you seen the prices for them tho'

basically any wheel from a pre 1999 car will fit, you may need longer wheelstuds.

Also a thing to check out before commiting to buy a set of disco/RRC alloys to fit on a 90/110/Defender is that the rated load capacity of the wheel is enough for running on defenders as they're axle weight limits are greater than a Disco/RRC.

Load ratings and alloys are only an issue on 110s.
Just check the offest as you end up haveing a worse tirning circle than you have now.
Still worth telling your insurance company

think there is going to be a few things i have to tell them about with a bullbar rooflights steroe alloys and engine

 

[slingshot2000]

Also make sure you get the correct wheel-nuts with the wheels. I have seen them making £5 each, and there are 5 on each wheel = £100.00.

110s must have 750tyres fitted, especially if you are towing, they are weight rated and take into account your trailer !

would disco 2 wheels fit or could i get a adapter plate

thanks

disco 2 wheels wont fit a disco1 the pcd is a different size and so is the offset you would have to get spacers which are not cheap, I have a disco 1 and a set of wheels of my last disco 2 better wheels but hey wont fit,although the tyres are great so i have a spare set of tyres when i need them

are the spacers special steel or anything as i could make a set otherwise

thanks

they look like hardened alloy with the studs set into them at the correct pcd look on ebay they are the cheapest ive seen around the 100 pound mark doesnt mean they are ok tho

Aha! alloys as alloy wheels... I started reading the thread thinking it will discuss the type of alloy used for the alu parts...
