Where to find Land Rover wheels?!

[LavisLane]

Hi all,

I've been keen to upgrade the wheels and tires on my P38 for a while and struggling to find someone in Sydney that has Land Rover wheels in stock. Mind you, i've only been searching online so may be limiting myself a bit.

Any ideas? I'm looking for series 3 Disco or Range Rover wheels, 18 inch.

Thanks!

[p38arover]

For 18" P38A wheels, ask Andrew E

Late RR or P38 age?
Late wheels come up on eBay all the time. Some cheapish, others not so.

There was a set of 2nd hand Triple Sports last week that would have been perfect for the RR. I told LRH but they didn't sell at all (no bids, $399 start).

[LavisLane]

Thanks Scouse, must have missed those on Ebay. I've been on there quite a bit lately and have my heart set on a certain design. Would love to know where I can buy that type from. Might have to bite the bullet and go through a dealer... :( $$$

[p38arover]

What design do you want?

[LavisLane]

Something like the ones on the link below have the right balance of usability/good looks without being too bling...

Missed out on placing a bid though;

And just around the corner from you !!
Worth a try to see if he still has them.

[PaulP38a]

Yeah, what Ron said... "Andrew E" often has some off the P38A's he wrecks. I got this set of 18" rims from him for a very reasonable price.

They were a bit cleaner than this when I got them of course :D

i was looking at buying them but buy the time i get them to me and mounted up it all adds up.

[Remy]

i agree with the extra cost and tyres are another consideration if you want decent off road - i know you can get some but the range seems better in 16 inch.

I picked up some centreing rings in the USA.

Today I fitted the RRS rims. I'm not sure if I like them.

[Scouse]

I think they look pretty good Ron. They're not too fancy like some of the later rims that are out now & don't look out of proportion either.

[p38arover]

The tyres are a lot quieter than the Cooper ST I have on the 16" rims.

[PaulP38a]

The tyres are a lot quieter than the Cooper ST I have on the 16" rims.

Nice wheels Ron. What sort of rubber are they running? Bit hard to tell from the pic how low profile they are.
Do you find that they wander more/less than your 16" rims?
I had an alignment done running the 16" rims and muddies, and then when I swapped over to my 18" rims and road tyres, it wanders around more.

[PaulP38a]

Ron - never mind, just saw your post at RangeRovers.net • View topic - Bling! Bling! Bling! (http://www.rangerovers.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=31456)

Question about alignment/wandering still stands...Cheers, Paul.[/QUOTE]

[p38arover]

No wandering noticed yet, Paul.

As you noticed, Goodyear Wrangler F1 in the standard 255/55R18 size.

[LavisLane]

I saw the below online and for the price, couldn't resist. I didn't really plan to use them on the P38 but thought they might come in handy in the near future.

I won them for $182 !?

As all things, it was too good to be true. The seller sent me a message saying that he had meant to put a buy now/minimum price at $550 and will be re listing them.

On one hand i think, "hang on, you've sold them - if you stuffed up that's you're problem" but on the other hand, they really did go at a crazy price and i don't want to be a mongrel about it... wondering what others would do here??

(might be worthy of a new thread/vote?)

I can't see the eBay page but Defender wheels won't fit a P38.

[p38arover]

Unless you plan to use them on Defender/D1/RRC, you might as well let him keep them. They won't fit a D2 or P38A.

If you want them anyway, then it's not your problem that he stuffed up. If he reneges, you could report him to eBay.

His mistake for not checking the listing fully before pressing enter.

You won, get them and as they won't fit the P38 sell them on and make some $$$.

Thanks for the heads up Ron - i've been watching Ebay pretty closely for a while but have a particular design in mind. I missed it once but fingers crossed another will come up again....

[p38arover]

Which ones are you looking for?

[andrew e]

I was told today that All4x4 at Kotara have a set of brand new 18 inch tripple spokes for 180 per wheel. These are IMHO the nicest rim you an get for a p38.
Andy

[Scouse]

The nicest rims are usually the free ones.

Not for our Ron though so he now has wheels that he's not sure if he likes or if he doesn't like :D.

I may be mistaken, i thought the spokes were more square.... mabe there are 2 types. They look more like freelander mags.
