Discovery Series 2 Wheels - Australia

Post by Td5Xtreme »

Discovery Series 2 Wheels

I need some 16x7 Alloy wheels for a Disco S2 .
Does anyone know of a good source for second hand or aftermarket wheels ?

There are plenty of '96 onwards Range Rover wheels available through the wreckers - but these are 16x8
Has anyone fitted these 16x8 Range Rover rims to their Disco S2 ?
If so - are there any problems I should be concerned about ?
Like backspacing - or tyre size problems ?

Thank's ,

The P38 16x8 RR rims are fine to use on the Disco, the offsets are the same. That rim needs a wider tyre than the 16x7, but check the tyre manufacturers websites to see what suits.

It should be fine according to:

I cant imagin that it would give any problems, especially if you have a bullbar.
