Bolt pattern, offset....axle bore. Maybe....that last one would concern me.

....but then the LR2 is a lot lighter so you will have to look at what weight the wheels are rated to handle.

Aren't 18" LR3 rims pretty cheap and easy to find these days?

I am having a hard time finding factory 18s houm_wa, I think people want to covert still so they get sold quick/high priced. So once my current treads are getting low I will just pick up steel rims, they are about $500/set and will look better than factory.

As for LR2 on LR3, won't work. LR2 is 5x108 and LR3 is 5x120 - so no match on the bolt pattern.

Pretty sure D2 is also 5x120 PCD but offset and load rating arent suitable, BMW X5 rims fit and commonly found in 17".

D2 doesn't have the right axle bore, either.

I too am having a hard time finding appropriate wheels for my 08 LR3 HSE that came with the factory 19" wheels. I want bigger more aggressive rubber so I need a different rim. I've had plenty of X5s in the past and do know they have the same bolt pattern, but not sure about the axle or offset. Any more info on this X5 wheel being an option?

Don't just wait for forum classifieds - too much demand

I called around to some local junk yards, and found one with couple LR3s in stock
Drove 30 min and left with 5 ten-spokes for $500 - Powder-coated them black for $300

This was when only compomotives were available
I really like the look of steel, but am happy with my setup
