well, i wanted to get a discovery II but i dont have enough money, so im thinking about gettin just a normal discovery, probably a 95' or a 96'. i am going to be putting a 2" lift on it so the stock rims are going to be fitted with bigger tires for off-road. but i also want to get a second set of black 20" 5 spoke rims. i cant find any rims sites that even have rims that fit an older discovery. so i am wondering if anyone knows somewhere where i can find rims like that, or if rims for a different newer car would fit like would rims for a discovery II fit a discovery.

There are a few sites out there that list the proper bolt pattern which is 5x6.5. But you'll spend more on those rims than the Disco I. Oh and the Disco I rims will only interchange with the Range Rover Classic and Defender.
Also if you search here on the board there was another guy that asked this very question and I posted a link to the rim place.

i solved my rim problems. i've decided to get a p38 range rover, which i can get a set of 4 20" 5 spoke rims with tires for
wait for it wait for it wait for itttttttt just under $2,000 which is about 2/3rds of what im spendin on the car . only in america haha. add the sound system which will consist of an in dash touchscreen and flip down monitor, and 2 8" kickers and 2 12" subs set in a custom box with the letters range rover goin across the top, i'll just pop my trunk and . its still going to be off-road capable by the way. |

Hmmmm... loud bass still comes out of my rig with 35's on 15" steel wheels. 1x 8" JBL in sealed box, and 2x Kicker Competition in a ported box. The only thing I have to do is insert my grill on my front teeth.. much easier than swapping wheels all the time.

im not opposed to a little manual labor. ill just end up being a buff guy with a discovery sittin on 20's and yet it can still go off road after about 2 of 3 minutes of work

More like 15 minutes each corner. Unless you have a lift and an air gun with torx stix in your garage. Be better off to buy an escalader if you want to look like your buddies. You're buying the wrong truck if you just want to be in with the in crowd of your generation. Be an individual, and build the truck right. Or be a rover poseur, and leave it stock (mall cruiser) and own a rover for the social status. But don't own a rover if you just want to look like a git with money. It's embarrassing.

first off im gonna have a air compressor in the truck with an air gun, and a hi jack lift. secondly i want to do this cause it wont look like my buddies cars.
and escalades are extremely gay, and i dont even see how you could compare that to an awesome disco.
