I have been chastised for contaminating Mad Hat Man's FAQ, so am starting a new thread here.

It is often said that all FL1s have a ET35 offset, but mine is one example that doesn't. My 2006 one has (Made in Hungary) original LR Evolution rims for 225/55R17 stamped on the insides with P/N RRC504640MNH 7.0J x 17" offset ET46.0. The PCD is definitely 5 x 114, and I measured the centre bore with a micrometer as about 63.5mm dia (that's the narrowest part, at the hub side). According to Microcat RRC504640MNH is from VIN 6A000001.

I'm looking around for a second spare at the moment. Anyone know the difference between my rims and the Evolution RRC002080MNH Land Rover Accessories Online Catalogue | 17" Evolution Alloy Wheel, which seems to be for earlier model years (to VIN 5A999999), because they look the same to me in pics. I know that the RRC002080MNH Evolution is also 7.0J x 17" with offset ET46.0 so what's different, the PCD or the centre bore? Or perhaps the colour of the paint:rolleyes:?

If the older RRC002080MNH Evolutions would fit my 2006 FL1, it gives more choice, hence the question...
