Default Wheels. Are we alone?

I'm thinking that we as D2 owners are alone in bolt patterns of our wheels. In other words, are there any other trucks out there that have our bolt pattern? I need wheels.
Thanks

5x120 isn’t an uncommon bolt pattern, it’s the hub centric part that makes a lot of wheels not work. I have an aftermarket set of American Racing Alloy wheels and they fit fine without any issues using new lug nuts of coarse. Some people report wobbles without hub centric rings, but I’ve never had that issue on a P38/D2 with aftermarket wheels.

BMW X5 wheels will go on a P38/D2.

P38 are the same, yes. Just get used Land Rover wheels if you need wheels. Or new steel ones, or new TF ones, etc. Don't buy whack american racing wheels.

I’d rather trust some wack American Racing wheels vs TF who can’t even make some LR parts worth a dang... P38 (no hub centric rings needed), LR3/LR4, RRS, and newer RR wheels will all fit the D2 with hub centric rings.

^Point proven, fake bead lock, fake hub center, silver accents. American Racing wheels - made in China. TF wheels - made in Italy. Not everything Terrafirma is junk, especially the items they do not make. Evo Corse makes the wheels for them. I don't mean to be a dick, but American Racing wheels are literally a running joke of any brand community.

Fake center cap???? It bolts onto the rim unlike the OEM LR center caps that can just take flight. It’s also not a fake beadlock wheel, those usually have fake bolts with much larger lips. It’s just got fake allen head studs as part of the design. To each their own not gonna hurt my feelings. The china one piece lug nuts (for OEM LR wheels) are doing great vs the OEM ones so not all china stuff is crap, along with the 10.00 key fob rebuild kits vs a new remote.
