Land Rover do an alloy wheel that looks the same as the steel wheel, but it's 20" rather than 18"

lf you like the look of steel wheels you could try and find a set of these, as they will fit your Defender.

Not to hijack, but I also bought a set of new/delivery mileage steelies this summer with A/T tyres on and I paid £625 for the wheels/tpms/nuts/centre-caps too via a bloke who has access to a Land Rover dealership.

I thought it was a great price considering the Goodyear Wrangler tyres were new and that they're £140 a piece. i also agree about the tpms adding resale value as it's not free to have a garage fit replacements.

If your wheels also have the A/T tyres on I'd suggest you hold out on price, if people don't want to pay £500 then don't give them away. When winter finally hits someone will snap them up, especially if you advertise to Scotland Very Happy

As and when mine go up for sale I'll want what I paid for them. I can't say I care much if a buyer has a mate who knows a guy from work who's sisters cousin's neighbour bought a full set on ebay for £25.50

Most the stuff on ebay is cack. No tpms, only four wheels, scrapes and scratches, dirty inside faces, tyres with sidewall damage or blathered in mud on the inside edges so you know they've been bashed off-road. Also rarely any wheel nuts included especially for the steelies.

I'd sooner keep my stuff than give it away to a strangers' benefit, and when I do give it away it benefits charity only. If buyers are greedy then let them miss out.

Stay strong Thumbs Up

Same here! Got 4 brand new OEM Landrover steelies for 200 quid, with tpms and Michelin tyres.
Bargain of the century I recon Smile
Problem with the steel wheel, they rust in a couple of winters 😳😳😳. I couldn’t believe it when I have seen it on a 22 plate defender. I Had mine black powered coated… after a few weeks with white steels on I was sick to look at them 🤣.

lf you spray the seam (where the rust appears) with a clear wax based rust proofing product such as XCP

Leave for an hour then wipe off any excess.
Then the steel wheels don't develop the unsightly rust in the seams that leaves marks on the wheels.

Ten minutes work that saves the heartache. Same as spraying it on the rear towing eyes. Stops the surface rust that's had owners complaining to their dealers.

While you're at it, give the vehicle underside a coat of the wax. Here's mine after two years and two winters.
