Thats not strictly true, the later line models didn't have dimples in the wheels.

My 16's were on an 06 from new, and have plain faces, no dimples.

I stand corrected. Now you mention it I do recall someone say very near the end of ten fl1 production the alloys got rid of the dimples.

Will these fit guys.

Land Rover Freelander Alloys 16" x 4 - 5 Stud 215 65 R 16



Used set of Land Rover Freelander Mk 1 alloys in good condition. Bought these to have as a spare set but also managed to get a set of 15" wheels so these are surplus to requirements. They take a 215 65 R 16 tyre and all have centre caps. I think they will fit 1998 - 2006 Freelanders but please check they will fit your vehicle before bidding. Stud pattern is 5 x 114.3.



These are 16" alloys - four of them as pictured.

Biggest you can fit to them is 205/80/16 (has to be narrower so that they won't catch spring cups), biggest you can fit sticking with 215's is 215/70

I was going to buy a set of steel 15 inch wheels tomorrow as the guy says they would fit they are off a freelander 1 but after asking him he now says they won't due to mine being an 2006.

I might have my 5 16's for sale if you'd be interested in them...If so, PM what you'd offer me for them. (I can arrange a pallet delivery for about £50)

Just remember what your GVW is.

My 2006 HSE is rated at 2505kg and Land Rover don't recommend fitting 15" steel wheels

Check your handbook.

Mine left the factory with 15" wheels!

That's because yours was originally a pre facelift, they upped the gvw in later model years

Mines a 2001 my which I believe is the same as a facelift?! It's the up to 2001 which had a lower gvw?! Maybe. No a caravan anorak!

I think it changed in 2005 a couple of years after the facelift came out.

The facelift uses 4x H7 bulbs for headlights. The pre facelift uses 2 X H4 bulbs.
