Gloss black looks beautiful with Grey! I guess I can just wrap my roof from white to Stornaway Grey. Either that or Anthracite Blindos

Morning everyone,

Probably get shot down for this! But does anyone have any comments on the quality of the 'replica' Wolfs, I'm looking at the ones from Paddocks at the moment. This is to go on a 300TDI 90 that does no towing or real hard work so not going to be asking a lot of them, just want to make sure they will be OK.

I'm very happy with my Terrafirma ones. No, they don't have the same load rating as genuine ones (1500kgs v. 2200kgs) but they're still stronger than virtually every other LR wheel and are perfectly adequate.

Other versions do vary though. I've seen some with a quoted rating down as low as 800kgs, which is too low for a 110. I'd avoid any that don't quote a rating at all, although it's likely that many are the same wheel but are just not described very well by resellers. It's difficult to imagine that there are that many aftermarket version. Darren

I'm happy with the quality of the 4x4tyre.co uk et0 wolf style rims. No problem balancing, look decent, although paint is already starting to rust which isnt brilliant at under a year old. James

fitted some better tyres to mine in preparation for our next trip which will take us from the Mozambique coastline to the Namibia coastline along the line of Capricorn. Amazed at how much better the 130 feels on the road now.

Perfect!

Can you confirm wheel and tyres sizes? Any spaces?
