Afternoon all

Now my P38 is completely standard apart from a modified L322 grille and converted to LPG.

I only have 1 gripe and that's the wheels. She's currently sitting on 18" hurricanes and I really don't like 'em, they look just too "busy", if that makes sense.

Now, I was trawling through ebay and there is a chap flogging 18" comets (think they were an option on Disco 2's).

Question is (and I know this is subjective) does anyone have these fitted to their p38, how do they look and more importantly, does anyone have piccies of them fitted.

I've tried paintpot & photoshop but it just looks crap (I'm not much of a techhie)

The Hurricane wheel was actually a very popular wheel for the P38. The Comet is really much the same in that it's 5 spoke but without the gap inbetween each of the spokes so not really much of a change. If you want a plainer wheel why don't you try the three spoke one, can't remember what they are called but they look good on the P38 as well and were a standard fit. Plenty on ebay for £100 a set. Personally I have L322 wheels on mine, 10 spoke 18" as fitted to 2007 models. They are a subtle upgrade. Despite what I said earlier I took off my Hurricanes to fit them though but I will refit them when I come to sell it down the line and sell the newer ones separately.
 
I saw a set ( the only set iv ever seen ) on eBay a while ago, that were 6 or 8 spoke and looked like split rims with bolt heads between the spokes, they were listed as original land rover, they were really nice
 
Hi these are 16 comets if yours were 16 I'd say want to swap I love hurricanes:(

blimey, that was quick.

I really like the look of yours Nick, mine a 2001 and in oslo blue as well.

Right, decision made. A set of 18" comets for me. The pirelli scorpions I have will transfer (all got at least 5-6mm of tread) then there will be a set of 18" Hurricanes up for grabs

Cheers again for speedy response
 
think my old ones were 18" hurricanes, but not 100% on what each are called!!

Because mine are Hurricanes and they came on the car from a guy who worked for LR and that's what they were called on the LR paperwork.
