Black steelies closest to stock?

Right now it's looking like I'm going to have to flag down every 1995 P38 I see and beg them to sell me their spare wheels...

Thanks for the heads up. I dropped him a line to see if he has any for a disco 1.

Genuine WOLF rims are NOT for tubeless installation. Just because a tire says tubeless, it doesn't mean the rim is.

The simplest way to tell if the wheel is a WOLF (NATO, incorrectly, to some) is to simply look through one of the holes and check the section thickness, or weigh one. The material is twice as thick as a standard rim, hence twice the weight.

Thanks for the heads-up. Unfortunately after several e-mails with them, they finally admitted those black steelies were actually car rims. It came to a head when I asked him for the weight of one rim and he e-mailed me back saying they were car rims. The thing that worried me was how many holes were in the rims. The LR OEM ones have about half the amount of holes...another example of "buyer beware" on Ebay.
