2009 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 SVX Station Wagon Santorini Black

My Wolf wheels are stored home with the winter tires on. So all 4 are flat on a pallet, dry and out of sunlight. The center hole is free of course, and there you can measure the thickness of the steel. 8mm.....

Went to take some pictures of what is all printed on them. Here we go (including a lot of remaining copper slip traces)

First what is printed on the inside:

Then a picture of each of the prints at the outside:

Now the question remains. Mine are an official Land Rover Switzerland accessory, that is not a package offered by a individual dealer, but at dealers Switzerland wide. But there is no ANRxxxxx number printed on them. The jury is still out to decide if they are the real stuff or are they an 8mm thick copy only?

Eric are you sure there is no part no - I found it difficult to find mine, they are on the outside of the rim on the inner face of the rebate - it's easy to miss it. The markings on mine are virtually identical to yours - even down to the makers marks H2 inside a logo - apart from the date code - and as far as mine are concerned i am positive they are genuine. Perhaps the oem don't have part no's but Land Rover branded do

Went to check again, and...

ANR4583 TUBELESS printed exactly where you say it is. How could I have missed that? Have been checking that numerous times.

So the good news is, they are genuine.

Load rating could well be 2200kg as per the link in the post by you in the other thread.
So happy to see that Land Rover Switzerland are not cutting corners.

Why would they after all, we are paying.

1995 Defender 110 2.5 n/a Diesel HT Nato Green

Apologies for dragging up an old thread. Ericvv, hi! I recently brought my defender over from the UK to Geneva (well, close) and I was wondering if I could pick your brains about a few things (including getting some nokian tyres) but I can't send pms yet so if you could message me that would be awesome, thanks.

2009 Defender 90 Puma 2.4 XS CSW Galway Green

I recently bought a set of Genuine Wolf rims from Craddocks too, and they are black. I also have a single Britpart one (which is silver) and it does not have the same markings on it, and most of the wheel stud holes are slightly 'out' - definitely noticeable compared to the genuine article. Euro-Leafing to infinity and beyond.....
