Thread: Seeking D1 or Defender Wheels for Trailer

Same stud pattern means that wheels would fit from any Landrover 1947-2011 except Discovery 2/3/4 and Rangerover post-Classic and Freelander (and 101). So the question is - do they have to be Discovery 1/ Defender 2009 or could they be earlier (or later) Defender, 90/110, RR Classic or Series? And are you after steel or alloy or doesn't it matter? Does offset matter? (Discovery 1 and Defender are quite different) Does rim width matter? If it does, what rim width (or tyre size) do you need?

This could greatly widen the type of wheels you could consider.

Thanks for asking clarifying questions. I think I have sourced some D1 steel wheels. The idea is that I can use a wheel that could be a spare spare for my Defender which runs alloys in the event of losing two tyres on trip. So tyre size would be to match 235 85 16. However so long as they are a 16" rim and cheap I a not sure it really matters!

The guyt who was to supply has just told me the wheels have been lost. I am still looking if you can help me please

I don't have anything suitable, but if someone in Sydney can't help, try Land Vehicle Spares in Silverdale - they have wrecked a lot of all models, and presumably have plenty of wheels - but I have no idea what they would be asking for them.

I have a white steel Disco 1 wheel complete with a never used 205R16 tyre. Price $80.

But I won't be home until 2nd Sept. and I can't post a pic from here in the US.
