Found this wheel on Rover Connection, it looks like a stock '00 Disco 16" but isn't. Anybody know exactly what this is? (OEM or aftermarket?)

I don't think so mate, most LR wheels most LR hubs up untilthe 2nd generation Range Rover and D2.

I think the D2 has got bigger brakes and more electronics in the wheel area.

Alan,

Looking at that picture, that wheel has the smaller bolt-circle common to the D2 and the newer Rangies. That one won't fit the D1/D90/etc.

Anyone got a set for sale or possibly trade w/ cash? I realize this is a tech thread, but might as well go ahead and continue all questioning here.
Regards,

Alan,





I wouldn't say "superior wheel ID ability" as if it were a good thing: I'm a Rover junkie, it'd be like a heroin addict being able to tell you where the junk came from by how the high feels...

I know, it's a bit sad isn't it?

It took my girlfriend about two years to realise that when my head was turned I wasn't eying up other women, rather checking out other Land Rovers.
