I want a second set of steel split rim wheels for an 02 Defender.

The problem is I have no idea about offsets etc.

I want to be able to fit the highest/widest tyre practical without doing a lift.

Does anyone know where I should start looking? Net based search terms? Companies ? Prices ?

Also an option to me is buying a second set of original mag wheels. (Im aware they are not steel nor split rims)

What options are available to me?

I may be wrong, but as far as I am aware split rims for Land Rovers basically don't exist.

I have a set of s1 disco rims that i got flipped for my 110 they cost me $45 a wheel to get done

I now have a set of 16x7" rims with a 80mm offset ideal for my 34x10.5 16" tsl swampers :D

Quite easy find your disco rims and take to a wheel works , Not sure where any wheel works are in QLD might pay to ask some members up your way:D

Hey Aaron, speak to Travers (Aquarangie) he's looking at getting some disco wheels reversed so would guess he knows who to speak to. Then text Mark 0438 339 737 (he's deaf) he has been trying to sell some disco rims for a while.
