i need some help im new to off roading and i just got a disco 2 i want to take off the 18 inch wheels and put on cheap 16 inch wheels on it so i dont destroy my current rims. is this possible? if so can someone point me to a place to find really cheap rims.

 

You want steel wheels then, or search junk yards for the alloys.
The steels are called NATO wheels.

 

Go with the alloys, if I recall correctly they weigh less, and DEFINITELY hold a bead better.

 

I just picked up at set of 5 D2 alloys used for $125. Depending on where you are located, shipping run the price up. Put your location in your profile, and it will help us direct you to some well known reliable D2 parts guys, new and used that may be near you, or at least minimize shipping if you have to ship this or other items you will need.

 

im from little rock ar. i dont want anything fancy but somthing i can just leave cheap off road tires on and just take the whole thing off and put my regular street stuff. do u know the bolt pattern so i can check my local junk yards and pick n pulls?

 

You are not going to find wheels from another brand that will fit, other year Rovers will fit, but not other brands of cars like Ford, Chevy or Honda.

 

What year is your Disco, have you set up the CDL for better traction, what about your front drive shaft, has it been replaced or rebuilt?

 

There's a set with decent tires in Conway for $750 on the Little Rock Craigslist. They've been up for a while, so maybe they'd take less.

There's also Nigel's Land Rover parts and stuff, but I've heard they rip people off. Can't hurt to call.

 

its an 02 and i haven't messed with CDL it didn't come with it and i haven't had time to be able to check to see if it has it to where i could activate it. its an 7 seat se7

 

I have a question that seems reasonable in this thread. Will a LT230Q locking transfer case from a 97 D1 fit into a 03 D2? I've read that the 03/04 T-Case is different.
