So on my hunt for a suitable rim to go on Millie i came across these

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/235861568556

My question is, are they a true 16 x 7 or have they been banded from a 16 x 6.5 to make the 16 x 7 ?

I have sent them a message asking this very question but i have not had any reply as yet Sad they don't have a phone number to contact them, hence the message Rolling Eyes

TIA Very Happy
I can't imagine it would be worth banding them to only get 1/2 inch wider? I've seen 8 inch land rover ' classic ' steel wheels which look good as the extra is on the outside. 1983 110 automatic OM606

That is what i thought Mark but you never know Rolling Eyes

Yes i have seen them, very tempted but i need 16 x 7 ET0, I have looked at them and they only come as 16 x 8 ET0, i don't mind going to 8" wide but the ET would have to be -25 to -30 as if i go any wider the tyre will rub on the arch under load Rolling Eyes Clayton.

Nakatanenga seem to have them in the proper spec though I think that they make the ones they sell plus they also offer powered coating on them to any color you like too.

Since I cannot seem to find original Wolf rims from LR Parts, et al. is the Nakatanenga offering the way to go? No Better Friend, No Worse Enemy

Seeing as LR have 20% off currently, I fancy a set of Wolfs for
my ‘05 90 TD5 to replace the boosts. I will have them sprayed black.

There appears to be several versions, anyone have
the official part number I need? Think it maybe… LR008758

Just wanted to check!

Thank you.

I’m pretty sure that’s a standard steel wheel code for a 5.5 x 16 wheel. A gen wolf is a 6.5 x 16 wheel and rated at 2200kg.

I’m sure the part number for a gen wolf is in this topic, or do a search on site and it will come up.

Si , have a chat with duckworth parts, a LR main dealer who do a forum discount. They look to be £103.60 inc vat on their web site at present, so hopefully they can reduce that price.

Most of the Wolf wheels being sold right now under the correct part number but only with a rating of 1,500 kg rather than the 2,220 kg proper rating. Sad. Big Cry

All things being equal, Blindos have somewhat the same rating but twice or so the price though. Big Cry

I think I'll wait for my Boost Alloys to go completely kaputt before going on the hunt for Wolf rims again. Maybe even Blindos if I can knock over a bank or three Rolling with laughter No Better Friend, No Worse Enemy
