If those are Disco 2 wheels, they will not fit a Disco 1. Hub designs between the two are completely different. If you’re looking to swap the wheels on your current D1, I’d recommend looking at Range Rover Classic or Defender offerings as wheels from those models will fit.

Many thanks, but surely I can get a hub adapter to make these fit?

Many thanks

But it might be cheaper to get wheels that fit.

I researched this a while back and the hub adapters are expensive. You also then have to worry about offset, what that's doing to the steering geometry, wheel bearing wear, etc.

Lucky8 has them available for $258 ea.

John Craddock in the UK has them for around $130 USD ea. plus international shipping cost.
