The Defender steels aren't worth much, but Disco steels are worth about $120 ea here. 8O

If you've got any room left, fill up the back of your 90 with 'em.

BTW, AEU2522's are $750 ea from Maxidrive, and what, about 40 quid over there?

Bloody hell.

mm i run them on my 90. Got my last one for £60 (A$150 ish ) , but they a non gen, still made by GKN though just not in a Landy box
will have to stock up on them then

going to put a set of more standard tyres on the 90 , instead of keeping the simex on for when i bring my 90 in (and put the simex at the back of the container). Will have to put the tyres on a set of Disco rims now then [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]

Thanks for all the feedback, guys.

Have a look in my gallery - link below - at the later pics of my ute as I now have Disco rims on it.

I've got one brand new white steel rim, Disco style, originally off a Defender Tanami.

Fitted with a new unused Dunlop 205R16 SP Qualifier all-terrain tyre.

See http://www.dunloptyres.co.uk/site/tyres/4x.../patterns/TG20/

$150

Will separate.

Got quoted $220 per rim for a set of Defender steelies, coming from the UK, from 4WD Parts.

I had previously ordered a set from my local tyre shop, and they even fitted the first two - then I noticed the offset was wrong. So a discussion ensued about what the correct offset should be, and why it wasn't acceptable to run a different one. I used the guy's own handbook to find the 33mm offset and also quote the wording about increased stress on parts etc. My car is also new and under warranty. So went back to the alloys, but still looking for a set of steelies!
