Just so you are aware, your rims are most definately 16x7, not 16x10. You can read this measurement on the outer of the rim. They will also only fit Discovery series 2 (99-04)and P38a Range Rovers specifically. They wont fit Disco 1's (which the asker has)or Disco3's, nor any other Range Rover apart from the P38a and they wont fit any of the Defenders or any other 4WD. The 5 stud diameter, nut hole and center hole is completely different to the regular Toyota/Nissan etc stud pattern.

Well done Slunnie

If it's not sus...... I reckon he thinks he's found a way to beat the Disco V8 depreciation woes... :idea:

Looking at what he has on there at the moment - before anyone bids up the price - he has $14,755 worth of bits - assuming he gets a few bids - that could easily grow over $20,000 ( specially when you count that the postage he has quoted for the first 4 items he put on is $368!!!!) 8O

V8 Discos are hard to sell at the moment - might be his solution


Bloody criminal thing to do with a perfectly good car though :evil: :evil: :evil:

There is a bidder on the rims, i emailed him and told him which vehicle they would fit.

But what about this rangie, he reckons it is more economical than a 1.6L Capri, it has an overdrive, but i highly doubt it would be that economical.

Well I have run his rego number on a Service Tasmania site that lets you sus out dodgy cars :twisted: and acording to them the plates .................................don't exsist,
If a car is out of reg it ses so if a car is in reg it ses so .
if a car is sus it ses so 8O .

I think it is way sus.

had a friend once who bught a VW once and when I checked its rego on this site it came up still owned by someone else :oops: and green instead of blue 8O :oops: ,so i took the plates of and we could still read the old mumbers under them that the origanal plates had imprinted on the paint work :roll: .
So as you see its a fools game if you don't check these things out :wink: .

On closer inspection, the front and rear pics, both show different registrations, with the 9 and 5 transposed. I think perhaps i'd better send e-bay an e-mail, something smells bad with that one.
