Stud patterns stopped the same on the LR but changed on the disco/RR

In Landrover Speak, new often means the same as old.

Oh… sorryIn Landrover Speak, new often means the same as old.
The new new type box thingy that’s not really a defender
I know everyone here is talking about whether the wheels will physically fit the hubs but you also need to look at the weight rating of the wheels. Less important if you have a 90 but if you have a 110 or a 130 then there are plenty of the wheels are not rated to the same as the axel weights of the larger vehicles. From memory I think only boost alloys are rated for a 110, and freestyle alloys definitely aren't.
