My brother owns a rather nice Japanese import Disco. I've attached a pic of one of the wheels as we've never seen them on any other vehicle. They seem to be genuine LR items.

Two of the centres are now missing, anyone recognise them or got any idea where he could get replacements?

Blimey. Never seen those before.
The tell tale sign of genuine LR production wheels will the on the inside spoke of the wheel.
Not a bad looking wheel at all.

They look like jap wheels you get on nissans and similar. Never seen them on a landy.

They seem to stick out the arch more than the norm.
Half shaft looks recessed too.

I'm wondering if it's on hub adapters...?

For some reason the picture will not load for me but they could be JC 2074 - PREDATOR ALLOY WHEELS

Camara angles not good but pretty sure they are not predators.

Have you taken the wheels off to see if there are any markings on the rear?.

I'd be intrigued to see a pic of the ones WITH the centre caps...

Close but the ring that the wheel nuts go through is raised on his, whereas on those it's sunk into the wheel.

Sorry I haven't been online to reply. A local specialist thought the wheels were German and a rare LR option. A wheel came off last year, luckily it wasn't damaged but my brother had to get new wheel nuts specially made, originals unobtainable.

I'll get a photo of the centre in due course, they have original looking LR badges as well. We won't be meeting up for a few Weeks to get any pics though.
