    i believe it was $2800 for the 5 rims and tyres. I'm sure it was over $3k.

    Not sure about the FL2 having same stud pattern as BMW or commodore - none of the wheel people I spoke to today had that to say - they all said they were a unique pattern. GArrycol - where/who did you hear tht from, I;d like to have a chat to them about it because if it;s true it'll be a godsend!
    My bad - Commodore wheels have the same PCD as the FL1 not a FL2. My trailer has FL1 wheels on commodore hubs.

    FL2 has a 108mm PCD which I understand is not common to any other landies. I have read on other forums that it is the same as a Ford Transit and other Ford Europe vehicles. I cannot confirm this but might be worth having a look. If they do have the same PCD then offset is likely to be an issue.

    I dont think a transit van will have strong enough rims with legal loading if they did fit.

    But volvo rim fits! but then you will have a volvo badge on the rim

    A transit van surely would have rims up to the load a FL2 put on em - surely!?!

    So volvo rims DO fit eh? What about offset etc? Are you saying I just need to find a set of volvo rims of the desired diameter? Thee are only to be used when going off-road so appearances are completely unimportant. I'd even put up with a hyundai badge if the rims fit!!

    FL1 has 5 stud Ford PCD, not Commodore.

    D2 is Commy.

    You shouldn't need to get anything custom drilled for the FL2 as quite a bit of the PAG stuff is built on common platforms.

    Specifically, you can fit Volvo stuff to the FL2 and I suspect that Jag & some Ford stuff will fit too. (I have seen some of the test mules running on Volvo Type R rims before...).

    If nothing else, that should help narrow down your search.

    Go to your local tyre dealer... they should have a book with the stud patterns and the list of available rims.
