I am looking for recommendations on places that carry 16" rims for D2's. I currently have 18's and I am looking for a more affordable solution for offroading. Any suggestions on which rims to buy or places to buy them are greatly appreciated. Located in Boulder, CO.

ebay is a great place to buy 16" rims. I bought one set for $150, and another with tires for $200.

Right here in "for sale" section ... or swap someone for your 18's

I called a dealership and found a decent human being that sold me take offs. Many options!

Good Luck

I also switched from 18 to 16.

Caution: Make sure they are rims for a Land Rover Disco 2...many look exactly the same and have the same sizing but the bolt pattern will be slightly off. I almost bought steel rims from Tirerack that were identical looking to the ones I have now. Glad I checked with my garage because they informed me that they would not fit.

I had them purchase 5 steel rims from Atlantic British.
