Default Range Rover wheel swap?

I probably know the answer to this, but want to ask in here and get confirmation. The "triangular" looking Range Rover wheels from a '91, which are stamped 16x7 with a 33 offset, and looks to have the large 5x6.5 bolt pattern, will bolt right up to my '99 D1 SD, yes?

If so, is it safe to assume the center caps are interchangeable as well? The RR wheels I'm looking at buying doesn't have the center caps, so if i find some for a D1, they'll fit, yes?

Thanks!

Range rover wheels(P38) have the same bolt pattern as D1, but will not work. They have a hub centric section that doesn't match your hubs. P38 and Discovery 2 are the same.

Center caps will not fit, P38/D2 have smaller center caps.

Ok, I'm confused. The '94 D1 I just bought in So Cal looks like it has RR wheels? If they are in fact RR wheels on the '94, shouldn't they work on my '99D1?

Ah, so I need to now if these RR wheels are from a RRC or P38? One of the two pics I added shows RR wheels on my '94, so they'd have to be off a RRC, yes?

These are the wheels I'm looking at. Seller says they're from a '91 RR, but can't tell if they're from a RRC or P38?

Whew, had me going there for a minute. The wheels in the Craig's List ad look to be 5x6.5, which is the same pattern as my D1. Doesn't the D2 have the smaller bolt pattern?

Okay, so I'm going to assume that these Range Rover wheels I'm planning on getting came off an RRC, since the seller says they're from a '91, and they look to have the same bolt pattern as my '99 D1 (5x6.5). So with that being said, I'm also going to assume that they will fit my '99 D1, since the '94 D1 I picked up in So Cal looks to have the same exact wheels. I'm going to wait until I get the wheels before ordering replacement center caps, in order to get a more exact measurement.

I have an appt on Friday at Pep Boys to get some 235/85 tires mounted on those Range Rover wheels, so they'll be ready to swap once I get the trans replaced and the lift kit installed.
