Picked up a set of these locally the other day, will eventually get round to blasting them and then probably a lick of limestone. Thumbs Up

My other set of 'wolfs' is stamped with an ANR number but these aren't, they are however 8mm thick in the centre and weigh about 15kg. Anyone come across similar markings?

On mine the ANR number and the tubeless (or tubed) stamping is on the rim, not the centre.
Hope that helps.

Heres my 130, on genuine LR Wolfs, wrapped in 255/85/16 Toyo MTs. Love the wheels/tyres, wheels are in need of painting though, and can't quite decide on a colour... Current thoughts are either black or anthracite... Thoughts?

Cheers, Joe.

I’m thinking of going to black wheels and grill on my 2014 110 USW XS which is Aintree Green.
What would look best? Black Wolf Steels in Black, saw tooth alloys in black Or wolf steel wheels in white?
Anyone else got one in this colour to show me and help me decide?

Obviously a 90 but I think Aintree and the colour combination looks awesome in the flesh, though not mine Whistle

Keep them original colour. If you go black you loose all the details.

Black definitely looks great with Aintree Green. I’m planning to change the grill and headlight surround to black too. Still undecided though between Wolf wheels or the Sawtooth Alloys like yours?

Wolfs are brilliant and have a little more offset, so good turning circle but they can rust - thinking of powder coating a set but still feel the nuts may crack the finish and the same will happen. Good luck with your decision . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Here are two 110’s in Aintree Green currently for sale with black grill and wheels. Would love to see them with the Wolf wheels too so you can do a comparison. But they look amazing as they are too
