Replica sawtooth alloys
I'm after some sawtooth alloys for my 90 however I imagine getting them brand new from Land Rover will be a fortune.... I wouldn't mind a second hand set of genuine ones however they all come with tyres with a lot of tread left and as I changed my tyres last year I only want the rims to save me some money.

The option I was thinking was getting some non genuine ones. Any recommendations of the best ones to get or where from and do they look bang on? Any pictures or experience will be appreciated. If it's a buy cheap then buy twice situation I'll just hold off and get genuine at a much later date.

Cheers

As a guideline I sold a 2 year old set of 5 genuine 16” sawtooths without tyres for £750.00. They were unmarked,The buyer did say they were in better condition than he thought they would be.

So they can be found, may take a little while Thumbs Up 2015 HT XS 90

Would be more than happy to pay £650 for genuine rims with no tyres. Maybe I'll have to try and be patient... I got my grill and light surrounds resprayed santorini black and got gloss black mirrors fitted this weekend and my car is in desperate need of them haha. The old freestyles don't cut the mustard any more. Whistle

I got mine from urban and was about to reply here recommending them. Sure enough as Sulisuli points out, they have disappeared from the website. I'm pretty sure the urban ones were from wolfrace (highlander?) who don't appear to be making their copies any more so maybe that's why.

I paid around £500 for 5. If I'd found genuine for £650 I'd have snapped them up in a heartbeat.

I think you’re wrong there, Freestyles for me anyway are a timeless wheel for a 90. If I ever decided to fit a set of alloys (doubtful) then that’s what I would be looking at. Just my opinion of course, but I think your motor looks good on them in the pic Thumbs Up
