    Yes, I looked as well, shame Performance Wheels aren't trading, you'd have a good option with another BB6 rim.

    If you get stuck, shoot us a PM, I have 4 X5 rims in the shed

    There is a Land Rover Work shop in Lonsdale 'Adelaide' , that has hundreds of written off Discovery and Range Rover vehicles. I reckon they would have wheels.

    Phone 0383846933

    I have no affiliation , just good people to deal with

    X5 rim, you'll also need different wheel nuts also, the centre hole is identical to the D3/D4/RRS so no issues fitting them to the car, you just need the wheel nut to suit.

    I hadn't seen that style of 17 inch X5 rim before. I like those more than the other ones

    Should be fine for a 2nd spare Mike

    That model X5 rim is E53, load rating was over 900kg from memory, pretty sure the D3/D4 min rating is 860kg, don't quote on that minimum though
