Alloys from a 'series 1' Discovery (89-98) are the same PCD.
BUT... at the age of your 90 (unless it's modified) alloys won't fit.
They will foul the rear brake drums, some aftermarket alloys will fit.
Also the wheel-studs & nuts need changing.
Studs for alloy wheels have a shallow slot machined into the end face.
Nuts are completly differant, as they have a captive (rotating) washer to clamp the nave of the wheel to the hub.
Nuts for a steel-wheel will chew the hell out of an alloy rim
Alternatively
Change the front studs, chuck the rear axle & reaplce it with an alloy compatible Range Rover derivative (hence gaining disc brakes as well)
Ought to be loads on E-Bay
