    Personally I reckon a set of these would look much better on a Disco .................... but unfortunately they don't quite fit, even though they are the same stud pattern. Disco wheels will fit onto an Amarok, but not the other way round. Bugga.




    If you could get these rims to suit the Disco, I'd have a set by now. IMO much better looking than anything else I've seen, either OEM or after-market (except maybe for a set of black rims on a white D4 that is known to be lurking around South Australia somewhere).
    Cheers .........

    They are 17 x 8.5 with +20 offset.

    But they do make them in a range of sizes / offsets. Look up "Fuel Vector".

    Just out of curiosity, has anyone contacted Simmons Wheels about making a wheel for the D4 with the larger brakes?

    Welcome to Simmons Wheels Australia

    I has a set of these wheels many years ago on a car I owned at the time.

    Not Simmons: but I have made enquiries into design and tooling for a suitable wheel.

    At this stage it's on the back burner as the outlay is significant... very significant....

    You can't go past Compomotive for their quality and Motorsport heritage. They are a seriously good rim. Unfortunately the style that's been made for the D4 isn't exactly to my taste. You're unlikely to get a cheaper rim for such a small market

    And that is why the wheel design I was working on fits Amarok as well D4 18" Wheels

    Simmons wheels website list wheels compatible with a D4. I am suspecting they maybe for the model with the smaller front brakes.

    Anyway, thought i would raise it, incase anyone is interested in their design.

    Is the PC site different? Can not see anything stating vehicle compatibility?

    I did a wheel compatibility search on the Tempe Tyre website and the Simmons wheels came up. On the Simmons Wheels site, they list wheels they can make with PCD the same as the D4 wheels and with a custom Offset.

    They show a few Land Rovers and Rangies in the Gallery with varying wheels and sizes. Note: most with larger wheels

    I think the Tempe Tyres and Simmons Wheels maybe one in the same.
