I looked at my wheels today because the steering has been off so I wanted to go through some simple things before sending for an alignment. Long story short my front passenger rim is bent so I swapped my spare on and the rude became a lot smoother and steering is much better. My question is where can I find a good set of 18 inch rims to replace mine that won't break the bank? Any preferences on wheels? No chrome please: too much to keep those looking nice.

Styling on wheels is a highly personal preference so buy whatever you like as long as it's the right spec for your vehicle. My vote is to stick to something stock. There are plenty of excellent vendors who sell quality used parts, you might start with @WILL.TILLERY or Overland Imports. Depending on your location shipping might be a chunk of change. Another option is to check your local wrecking yard, maybe you'll get lucky. If you have a D2, keep in mind that wheels from the P38 model Range Rover (1996-2002) will also fit - the Mondial is one style in 18" diameter.

Another common wheel for the D2 and P38 was the Hurricane:

Less common is the Comet, which was on later models of the D2:

Thansk for all the great information. I've been looking in my local area for factory rims for my D2 I may have yo drive to the Jaguar/Rover Cemetery in Houston soon and see if they have what I need.
