There was a thread a while back that I can't find now, but can anyone ID the wheels in this picture, and for bonus, tell me where I can find some??? Look like my SE rims but flattened and 16 vs 18, which would solve my current high/low option tire dilemma.

My LR3 came with a set very similar to those except in an 18".

As Jafir mentioned, G4 style, non US spec wheels. I like them quite a bit, and they're 7x16 unlike all NAS D2 wheels which were 16/18x8

Thanks Jafir! I assumed 255/65R16s for tires but it looks like it'll be thinner! According to that thread though, he ran the same size even though it's an inch thinner wheel. Is that advisable?

It depends on the tires. Most tires list a range of wheel widths that are acceptable. So depending on the tire, a 255/65R16 might work fine on a 7" wheel.

I still question if these wheels are really 7" wide.... no one ever answers when I ask about the markings on the wheels themselves. They should have a 7J or 8J marking on them somewhere pretty easy to see, front or maybe back side.

If they are 7" wide, you could certainly use D1 or RRC sized tires, or the optional 7" D2 sized tires. 235/70R16 or 215/75R16.

I certainly did update everyone on those wheels right after I got them installed. See link: https://landroverforums.com/forum/di...-bought-63346/

and here: https://landroverforums.com/forum/di...27/#post433673


And I have no regrets either! Absolutely love them.

Im still waiting to hear back from you regarding the custom bumper Dan.....
