    Default FS: 4 Land Rover three spoke alloy wheels with tires.

    I just bought an 88 RR classic. It has dark grey three spoke alloys on it plus the spare. I plan on replacing them with steel wheels and mud tires. Just wondering if anyone might be interested in buying the 4 wheels with two year old Mastercraft Courser AWT 235/70/16's. The spare wheel will also be included in the sale. It has a micheling XPC on it(old). The wheels are in very good shape, never off road. Looking to get $300 for the complete set with tires.

    Out of curiosity, what is the spare wheel like? Don't care about the tire.

    To tell you the truth, I only saw the inside of the spare wheel because I haven't taken it out yet, so I don't know for sure what it looks like.
    I'm located in upstate NY about 60 miles west of Albany.

    I hate to tell you but those old three spokes aren't worth much at all. At one point I had well over a dozen and couldn't give them away. Now if you had TWR's, Tornado's or Cyclone's at least people want those.

    Thanks for the good news paul . Is it because they are ugly, or are they not good off road wheels. I'm turning my 88 RRC that I just bought into a trail truck, and thought that they would not be good trail wheels, so I was going to get steel wheels.

    Well, I guess I'm somewhat of a purist. I like the 3-spokers. I use them on my modified '94 for off-roading. I also have a set of castor 5-spokes that I'm thinking of having powder coated black for my next set of tires. On top of that I have the set of chrome TWR wheels that originally came with my '94 and are currently mounted on my '89. I may be parting this one out soon if anyone is interested in the TWR wheels. The chrome is a little tired though.

    I am looking for a fith castor wheel.

    Default Just use them!

    Doug just use them with your offroad tires. Since there is no market for them you really won't have to feel bad if you frig them up in Robbie's creek or something. Take the $ you save and put it towards some traction device or one of the Equipe 4*4 kits.

    I've got a set of the 3 spokes on mine and I'll probably just use them for a set of trail tires or winter tires, I'll keep the nicer disco rims for road tires.... Hmm I'm not sure what I'll end up using the rostyles for?! How the heck did I end up with so many rims?!!

    Matt... the only way someone can end up with that many rims is to find a good place to hide them from the wife.

    Keep up the good work!
