It's like an old English White. (Cream).

I'd like know what size tyres they are. I'm putting some wolf steelies on my v8-90.

Limestone I think. Following Keith's photos I painted mine the same colour.

Unfortunately, now I need to paint the roof the same colour to match.

These look fantastic. I know this was posted a while ago, but could you tell me what colour they have been painted?

Those wheels look very good. We've got dual finish alloys on our Keswick 90 with an Indus roof, but something like these with a matching limestone roof would be my next choice.

Save painting the roof and have a vinyl wrap put on . Quick and simple and removable .

235/85 mate. Not a fan of 255 or wider as I prefer height .
If you zoom in you can read it on the tyre .

Great looking finish on Keith's wheels - I followed his lead regarding tyre choice - the whole package just looked so right to my eyes.

Just Ordered my Wolfs
Just come off the phone from Dan at Duckworths, 5 genuine Land Rover Wolfs with 23 wheel nuts (took me ages to count them looking out the window and still come up with the wrong quantity at first Rolling with laughter )

Big thanks to Dan for being up up front with an offer on this thread and being all round easy guy to deal with Thumbs Up

Also thanks to all for this thread, wanted to get Wolfs since I got the truck and this has helped a lot in getting sorted.

Now what colour? Powder coat or enamel? Thinking Limestone powdercoat.

go for paint as powdercoat is awfull for steel wheels in my opinion.

Paint is more forgiving - it can easily be touched up (unlike powder coating) - also be aware that wheel nuts may not stay correctly torqued if the nuts don't seat correctly onto the new paint/coating.
