Aloha,
We just bought a 03 Discovery and it came with a second set of wheels/ tyres.
From what I can tell the stud pattern is the same. Does anyone know if the D2s wheels will fit on an LR3?

They will if you enlarge the center bore or fit spacers. The D2 has a smaller hub bore than the LR3/4

I’ve enlarged center bores with a router before. It’s pretty easy. Tire shop won’t, machine shop would. Are LR3s hub centric? I think I’d want a machine shop to do that for a good fit. I was mounting the wheels on lug centric hubs.

What does everyone think of the esthetics?
The LR3 is lifted on the AB 2” coil conversion. It currently has the stock 19” rims on it.
Personally I find the tires to be a bit bland and nothing rugged looking enough.

That’s exactly what I was thinking. The 19s on the LR3 are just expensive.

Anyone, thoughts on aggressive tires?

thankfully tire rack does ship to Hawaii.
