    Wheel fitments?

    Still looking for genuine Defender alloys for my TDi, with no luck. There is a similar wheel though, for the D1 - does anyone know if this will fit? Is there a list of which models/years had the same wheel nut pattern?

    Thanks

    depending on what rims your running now and some other things I might be convinced into letting the rims on big red go to a more wanting home.

    Im thinking 1:1 swaps for steelies with some $$$ thrown my way for the effort to change em over.

    But i really want split rims to put on kermit so i can put his steelies on big red...

    After what I saw happen in jax quickfit when they were putting my new new spare on (old one wouldnt balance to my satisfaction, they balanced it, gave it to me, ordered a new replacement on the spot and the boss gave it "since youve been so patient if you happen to blow one out we'll fit the new one in place and order another one saying it wouldnt balance" bit im digressing) the paranoid little voice in my head is saying, "sheeeet' get them mags off now"

    The number of times ive serviced and RFSV and wondered how long it would take them to realise that its got mags as opposed to split rims...

    Thanks - I spoke to Britpart when they did the timing belt, and they had nothing. Also have a constant search setup on eBay, which is where I see Disco wheels but rarely Defender ones, hence my question.

    Will ring round the others tomorrow though.

    From memory, 31x10.5 on 15" white steel wheels with Bridgestone types on what looks like an AT pattern.

    Any Disco 1 wheels will fit your Defender.
    See if you can get the nuts if you buy alloys.

    Thanks. I can get the nuts from Paddocks in the UK if they don't come with them, it's the wheels I didn't fancy getting shipped!
