    rims I got given the wrong ones

    Went to fit my new rims with the tyres I got fitted yesterday had the rims since last year but after getting finished up at work and moving to the gold coast were put into storage.

    Should have checked but considering I asked for rims for a series II disco gave it no further thought!!!then putting them in the shed for a year did'nt help either let that be a lesson do not take their word for it so is the PCD of a series I disco 165mm and the series II disco 125mm?? looks like I will be selling some rims minus the tyres of course and trying to get the right ones.
    disco seriesII mods so far:-bullbar,hyd winch,
    detriot locker,lsd front,C.D.L kit,chipped and bigger intercooler,2" lift,rock sliders, lsd in transfer case, modified auto trans.

    I don't know the exact measurements but Disco1 & Disco2 have different PCDs.
    At least you won't have a problem selling the Disco1 rims & getting Disco2.

    LP/P38 RR are the same PCD as Disco2.

    Stevo, Disco II rims have a 120mm PCD, excactly the same as the Commodore and HQ.

    Also the new VE/VX Commodores have a 14mm stud same as the D2/P38a.

    here is a method for working out the PCD on a 5 stud wheel,
    Measure the centres of the two closest stud holes then divide this by .58778
