Why is there such a small choice of wheels..?
Would these fit a 1992 463 SWB?

Why is there such a small choice of alloy wheels for the G?
Probably the best list of G wheels.
yer, lack of wheel choice for the G is fustrating !! the wheels you are looking at will fit your G for sure. [is your G the one in your avatar ?]
there is wider choice of alloys now since some models used on the vw toureg and porsche have 5x130 bolt pattern. only problem is that the centre bore need to be opened on these alloys as the G has i think a 73mm centre bore .
the G bolt pattern has always been the same since 79...
you could also [like me] use wheel spacers to convert the G bolt pattern to land rover spec. then you would have wider choice at a cheaper price. be wary that the spacers are 30mm off set so will so you may need wider flares.

You should be able to get them at your local dealer for about £20 cheaper (each):

Or I can try getting a slightly used set for you for a bit less...if time is no object.
Its a nightmare!
Its either Ashtaroth's or Brabuseseses's
Yeah, that's mine. Its in the body shop at the mo getting a few bits done.
Is it hard to open out the Centre bore?
I saw some adaptors....... cant they make them so they work on more wheels or am I totally over-simplifying the whole thing?
I found a site that did loads of wheels (in USA and I cant find it now), but the 463 wheels only fitted post 96 G's. That's what made me think maybe not all 463's were equal.

A bit late on this chat Hus55, but where can I find the wheel spacers? I am giving up on keeping my G original.
Thanks!!
my wife love these rims .. now I have to look for them for her ...
If you're really at a loss, why not try the following option:
Buy wheel adaptors so that you can fit LR wheels. These guys do it:

I looked on there but they are not mentioned (unless I missed em).
And the top paragraph about ET is all rather confusing.
I also saw something somewhere that said something about the stud pattern or something changing at some point.
Does anyone know for sure?
