I'm thinking of getting some steel wheels for my 99 Disco 2. Just wondering what offset/bolt pattern? I currently have 245/75/16 treadwright wardens and I hate them! Will a 15x8 steelie fit the rover? Then I could get 31X10.50 or 32X11.50 15s. Or will I have to stick with 16's? Anyhow I have a 2in TF medium lift and like the way the current tires fit. I just like the look of a black steel wheel. Any pics you have of your rigs with steelies would be great to see. Thanks in advance!

i think paul grant has/had a set of 15x10 steels in a DII pattern

 

What Dusty said, and you do have to stick with 16"s. 15"s won't fit over the factory brakes.

 

I thought you had to stick with 16", but "pinky toe" is running 15"s without issue. pro comps I think

 

there are a few, costly and rarely seen used

 

I don't really understand the point of going the extra inch to 15, you won't see enough of a difference to make it worth it. I like steel wheels but stick to Rover alloys because they hold a bead better off road.

 

on that note, some years of bmw have the same bolt pattern also. if you go alloy

 

That is incorrect. 15" steel wheels will clear the brakes.

 

Your girlfriend understands the point of an extra inch
