Hopefully won't have them much longer, but they do look good.

Thinking of getting a set of these for my pickup, don’t want to increase the rolling radius, so are they the same as standard wheels?
Also are they tubeless or as the standard wheels tubed?

They're 16 inch rims but slightly wider at 6.5 inches versus 5.5 as standard.

They come in both tubed and tubeless versions so be sure of what you're buying. Darren

I know production costs would probably be the issue but what about an alloy Wolf.....?
Would keep the "Defender Rust Haters Society" ( ie me...!) happy?
Is this heresy......? Wink

Very definitely yes - a "Wolf" wheel is more than just a style, being steel is intrinsic to it's performance - form follows function; it is engineered not designed. Wink

Inspired by another thread (RNLI) where I have just seen mention of galvanized modulars and given that I am very frustrated by the orange rash over all my Wolfs, I wonder if they could be galvanized before painting? Rob

Tried a set on for the recent bad weather. I like the look, but not the km2s, too noisy and I didn’t think they were as good as the ko2s in the ice, might save up for another set of the ko2s to go on these for next winter Rolling Eyes
