Default Looking for a wheel dealer

I was wondering if anyone here knew of a dealer in the United States that
sells these wheels? http://www.ostlestyres.co.uk/steel/silver8.html

I just bought my first Discovery a few weeks ago 1996 & would love to put some
of these wheels on it.

Thanks for any info.

Disco Mike...I'm the guy that called you about the steering problems last week
They tightened up the steering box fixed the problem.

As far as the wheels go I looked on line atAtlantic British they didn't have them listed
I sent off for a catalog last week perhaps they would be in it?

Start calling salvage yards, that is the rim for the spare tire. You already have one, you just need three more.

Have you checked the PSI in the spare yet? Or taken it off the trk? The nuts that hold it on will rust and it can be a pain on the side off the road. That is also a bad time to find out that your spare is flat.

and check out over the next few weekends.

Its a good idea to put anti-seize on the studs that hold the spare on and to check your spare tire PSI twice a year and remove it completly once a year to keep the studs from rusting.
