Defender 110 or series steel wheels
I am not entirely sure but I think these are off of a Defender 110, but could be a series truck.
They are 16X5.5. 4 of then have the same markings on them and the 5th( I believe the spare) only has a serial number and the paint finish is duller and not as nice as the 4.
$450 for local pick up in Southern CA, or I could ship but they won't be cheap(approx $35-50 a wheel).
Also interested in trading for a Land or Range rover roof rack, front steel, or rear steel bumper, or winch

Very interesting. That part number RRC503600 shows to be a tubeless defender wheel, 5.5" wide. And they are pretty new too. Like td5 or newer.
They would be great with some Michelin XZL. Mine are tubeless tires on older tube style rims, I'm pretty sure. If I didn't already have a set of 4 wolf wheels, I'd probably try to puck these up.

Thanks for the insight. I traded them for a set of newly powder coated boost wheels I was going to put on my white discovery.
The guy I got them from had bought a few pallets of rover parts at an auction and these were in it. I picked them up because of the condition, they really do look new.

Wheels & Part numbers
Wasn't the deal big deal with steelies whether or not they'd work with rear discs?

I thought that was the issue with alloys? Whether they'd clear the drums or hubs on older axles.
My old tube-type rims seem to fit fine on my disco rear axle and the drum axle it replaced. I'm not sure about series wheels though. Maybe some of those have issues?
And they say the disco "spare" wheels fit everything Land Rover made with 5x6.5"

Yes, I did. I actually started thinking I should keep them and put on my white disco, but not sure they will fit based on Paul's observation.
Anyways they are listed, but I'm still having pre-separation anxiety!

No, Abran, all I was saying was that I thought I remembered there was an issue with earlier steelies not having the proper offset to accommodate rear discs. If these wheels are off a late model Defender then I would expect they'll work with disc brakes. Also, Jafir could be right about the issue only being with alloys on drums instead of steelies with discs. It's been a whole lot of years since I dealt with Series Rovers, 90's and 110's. Middle age made me into a confirmed coiler, not a leafer.

nah, I don't know what it means, but a lot of wheels have it:
Wheel - 16 X 7 - Silver Steel - Set Of 4 - Land Rover tire sets from Atlantic British
And those wheels only fit D2 and P38
