    Pro Comp - Australia - Pro Comp Alloy Wheels

    You will have to look through I do remember seeing one wheel in the alloy bit that would fit a landrover but I never looked through them all..

    You would also need to check there load rating etc to make sure they can be legally fitted to one also

    16"x7" is the standard size used on Defender/Disco 1 alloys so they are easy to find - if you are happy with the LR designs (which, in my opinion, are generally far superior to any aftermarket designs).

    If you want 15"x7", I think the best looking alloy rims are the BWA rims (as seen on my first Rangie below):

    Performance Wheels make the TX1 which has a 1400kg load rating (satisfies rego and insurance mobs) and is made here (Australia)

    Wheels for 130's.

    My personal favourites but they cost a fortune

    They are much better than many aftermarket designs.
