Series Aftermarket Rims, what is out there?

[ScottT]

What rims are available for a series truck stateside?
It is a '68 with 1 1/16 in. studs.
I am looking for something besides Wolfe rims.
Thanks
Scott

110 steel wheels, or Disco steelies.

Oh, also... sometimes you can find wagon-wheels (I'll see if I can find a pic).

I'm not sure, but Rostyles might fit, too....

[Leslie]

These are wagon-wheels.....

[Leslie]

Rostyle....




But, I'm not sure that they'll fit a Series....

Disco steelie....

I'm looking for one or two of these if anyone wants rid of them.

You can also get any custom wheel manufacturer to provide them. Allied, trail ready, stockton, walker evans, stazworks etc etc

The wagon wheels have their appeal but where do you find them?
The customs are sweet but $300 each is a bit steep esp. as I am thinking of them after a disc conversion. Anybody have pics of the custom rims on a Series?
The Zu rims in LRI are cool but shipping from the UK is a no go. There are very close to the Mach 5 rims which are steel but the Zu are alloy. Both would need to cross the pond which is what I want to avoid.

[leafsprung]

you can get many of the custom rims for as little as 50 bucks a rim . . . only the high zoot double beadlock alloys are 300. Even the stazworks double beadlocks are 200 . . .

I must have been looking at the wrong rims, I'll have to recheck. Do you know if any of them have done series rims before?
Thanks

I have pictures of Disco steel rims:

Here is a picture of one side by side with a stock 109 rim for comparison.




Note the vehicle in front has early European spec Defender outer wing panels, the tyres are 33.3" dia (the ones behind are 32") and there are disc brakes on the vehicle with the 7 inch wide Disco wheels.

Below is an overall picture of the vehicle with the Disco steel wheels on. Mine are semi gloss black. I thought it would go best with the British Racing Green vehicle colour. Of course you can paint them any colour you wish.

Yes, most of them have done rover rims . . .but it not like there is anything special about them . . . . Heres some cheapo AR rims:

Im sure you can get them direct from AR too

If you want to see the Disco steelie in limestone....

(at that time, the doortops weren't yet painted....)
