Do you go off road much, are you looking for a highway tire or someAT's so you can go play?

The tires are 255 65R16, and the car is used for local/highway uses, not offroading.
If that's the case, you are a good candidate for 18" wheels. I'm definately leaning more to the offroad side and your 16s would be great for that.

The tires I have a 255/55/18 just as the stock tires were for 18" wheels. They'd be the same overall diameter to what you have now, just with a bigger wheel. I think the 18" Hurricanes look nice, they just don't suit my needs.

I'd love to trade.

none of my business, but those are the wheels that I run, and I think they are the best looking 16 inch wheels that were available with the D2

I HAVE 5 wheels from a DISCOVERY II that I just took the Tires off of in Virginia for sale. They are 16 x 8. I can ship 4 with no tires and one wheel with a tire that HAS next to no tread that was used for a spare, or I'll get the tire shop to take off the spare(too dangerous to use anyway before I ship them!
There are absolutely no CURB RASH on any of the 5 wheels, I ran my hand on each wheel. They all have the LAND ROVER-OEM center caps too. EXCEPT the Spare tire The man I bought them from quickly swapped his for 18's or 20's off a 2003 RR right away. He also gave me the ELEPHANT spare tire cover that has no rips and tears which I will include too.
I buy items for my RRClassic off eBay all the time and I know shipping for wheels can be HIGH. Anyone know how the GREYHOUND bus shipping service works? Somehow you load the wheels on the bus to its next destination to save $$$$$Or is that a MYTH?!!!Here are pictures of the 5 wheels:

I'm wondering how much you would want for these including shipping to 14225?

Thanks,
