Folks,

I am looking for a 6th rim a standard white "tubless" rim the same as my 2009 130 twin cab came with....white lots of holes and tubless.

Does anyone know the best spot to buy either a take off with an XLZ someone does not want or to buy the rim and go to a tyre place and find a 7.5x16 and get it put on, heaps of people run straight out and upgrade to wide wheels so there would be a few 7.5x16"s that tyre places may on sell I am guessing.

cheers pc3

Thanks Juddy Why do they only come in Black ? I take it there the genuine Wolf Rims then ?

John Craddocks sells them in the UK but the cost to get one here would be hugely expensive I suppose.

I have tried to work out why they only come in black, when all Defender 130's etc come with white rims......

I asked LRA and they also said they only come in black.

I think a few years ago you could get white from the factory.....

I have 5 coming over in my container, that i will be selling on... just the rims, very good condition......

One rim by air is around 100 uk pounds, if you buy from craddocks..

The black is a just a primer coat.

When we used to replace D1 steelies under warranty, they all came black & had to be painted white or silver.

AFAIK Landrover use black undercoat, and have since the S1 days. The rims are sold painted in undercoat only.
