I beg to differ. They are both 5 stud and a pcd of 114.3mm

G30RGE:
There are quite a few manufacturers wheels which are close to, if not exact, PCD as Freelander (114.3 x 5) - however - 'try before you buy' as not all fit because of offset and brake configuration (ie drums/calipers etc...) IIRC standard offset is 35mm.
If you use spacers then this reduces the offset problem
For PCD comparisons try here
carbore:
I also have a hatchbag boot liner

has saved the carpet from much bin juice! yuck
Not ideal for heavy loads as it can ruck up so also consider the LR Rigid ones available in set ip and set down configurations.
Also I haev a dog guard but no dog. I use it as a loading bulkhead so boot contetns dont hit heads when im carrying various junk.

He got his Freelander done at OEC4x4 in Kingsteignton http://www.oec4x4.com
A great broup of people and welome everything, unlike alot of '4x4' centres who say they are 4x4 centres but only deal with the LR's!!
Give them a try!!

Beg to differ when you know what what your talking about...
Although there are many with 0.3mm (gnats knacker different) and if fitted carefully will work perfectly well there are none available that will fit FL exactly..
I run on a set of OZ racing wheels with the slight difference, but as george has said there are many other things that will affect the fit of a wheel.
Spend a few hours reading and understanding this http://www.carbibles.com/tyre_bible.html before you start messing with things you dont understand
