Personally, I went for one from Exmoor Trim. I just feel that the Momo ones (and some others) aren't very....well, 'Defender-like' if that makes sense? I tried a Momo out and just felt it was too small and didn't suit the vehicle. The Exmoor Trim ones are larger and a bit more of a classic style.

I get what you mean! I have looked at the Exmoor ones, and I really like the Williams wheel in black, but the wait time on orders at the moment are fairly lengthy! Which wheel is it that you have?

I've got the Nimbus. Just really 'fits' the look IMO. I do love the look of the Bedrock wheel they do though - they didn't do it at the time I bought mine unfortunately, otherwise I'd have defo had that! ‘08 Defender 90 Hardtop

I'm going to try an OMP Sand in mine I think. I saw a photo on Instagram of one in a Puma and thought it looked the part. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS

I have genuine XS leather wheels on mine and love them - they were cheap too once upon a time

I was in the same position and couldn't find a decent leather XS wheel so bought a 2nd hand optimill QR boss and the cheapest momo I could find on ebay. The wheel is 350mm which I find slightly small for my liking but once you have the right boss you have a massive choice of wheels to try.

Never understood why the Startech is so popular - looks to me like something British Leyland would have fitted to a turbocharged Maestro, but I know my opinion is very much in the minority.

I have a Momo Retro 360mm, with the Optimill quick release boss.

I liked the understated classic look of the wheel, the dimensions are perfect and the quick release is amazing.

Finally got round to sorting this out1 Thank you all for the help and suggestions, was greatly appreciated! In the end it came down to who had stock of which wheel, as there was about a 3 month wait for any wheel from most suppliers

I purchased the QR from LRD then managed to find a wheel from a well-known auction site which I managed to get next day delivery on - too good of an opportunity to miss

fitted it today and it there's so much more room, makes driving much easier! Wheel is a 15" Moto-Lita MK4!
