Will the Wolf wheel take a 255/85 tyre? I think most are 235/85 but can get the 255's for a good bit less. 21 Defender D300 H/Top

Ah, perfect answer. Are yours original wolfs? Just wondered if they'd rub at all but should still be plenty of space. 21 Defender D300 H/Top

Hi, yes original LR Wolfs
They will rub on your radius arms, just need to adjust the steering stop bolts to suit. 1997 Ex-MOD 110, Pop Top Camper

I have a set of ex PSNI Tangi wolf steels, they are quite rusty.

I'd like to have them painted the same white as the roof on by Belize green 110.

Whats the correct colour code?

They say if it sounds too good to be true it normally is, hence my hesitation on this advert.

However at £129 incl P&P for 4 x new genuine wolf wheels it seemed worth a punt. Description said a pallet had fallen over and some of the wheels were damaged. Nervously opened the boxes finding a scuff on the first 2 and a dented rim on the 3rd followed by a scuff on the last one. Pretty happy.

I think the dent can be knocked out at a tyre place and as I'm changing the colour of them the scuffs don't matter. If the dented one was a write off it's still cheap for 3. First bit of luck I've had in a while.

That looks perfect, was hoping to see those tyres on genuine wheels on a 110.

I'll be going for the same combo.

I always like that size tyre on the Brooklyn Coachworks Defenders.

They do look perfect! I think they look better on the narrower rim, I think they're a little balloon looking on my ANR's. Might have to try a swap.... James

Wow what a long thread 😂

I’m looking to get some genuine wolfs.

Does anyone know what stamps should be on each wheel?

Much appreciated 👍

Thanks Mark!
Should there be something stamped between each lug, so 4 stamps on each wheel?

Would you know the going rate for a set these days?

Cheers Chris

Have a look at this site https://www.landroverexpedition.com/equipment/wolf-wheels/
As I am not the owner of the site, I cannot guarantee correctness, but good as a starting point.
I have a set of aftermarket rims, and they seem to be well built and my guess is they are stronger than the axle itself. 1988 90 Hard Top, 19J Diesel Turbo, Shire Blue - Restoration ongoing

The number is stamped on the rim, its says anr4583 tubeless. There was a set on Ebay for £200, but they were powder coated black, which is fine, if you want black! About £300 plus for 4 is about the going rate, depending on condition. Good luck in your search. Thanks Mark
