jasonforsythe:
hi all been offered wheels for my defender they are the 5 spoke rr wheels do they fit straight on to my def 85 110 defender ex mod also what socket size do i need for the wheel nuts

thanks jason

JIMBOBLY:
if they are range rover classic wheels,they will fit on the front,on the back im not so sure if your back axle is on drums,someone on here will be able to help with that bit,as i had issues with my ninety,but i think it was cause i wanted p38 wheels with the adapter hubs that i couldnt have,as for the socket size,27mm.

Range Rover Blues:
Alloys only fit safley onto the hubs designed for them, these can be identified by having marks (either a tribgle or '-' stamped onto the end of the studs).

Given the vintage of you Defender I'd say they won't fit.  The driveshafts will poke out throught the centres and the wheels will just foul on the drivemebber before they fit snuggly on the flange.

jasonforsythe:
yup they do but got some spacers now so hopefully AOK (fingers crossed)

thanks for the reply thou 8-[

Range Rover Blues:
Bother, I just remembered the really bad news.  RRC alloys are NOT rated for the weight of a 110 :'( and strictly speaking you shouldn't fit them.
