Freelander 1 Steel Wheel Suggestions (Post your Photos)

Evening all!

I'm looking to get a new set of wheels and boots for my 06 Freelander 1 3 Door.
Ideally looking for a set of black steels with a good all round off/onroad tyre and don't want to have to start lifting/cutting!
Any suggestions/photos gratefully appreciated.

Why steel wheels? Alloys run much truer, so give a miles more refined drive.

Tyres, it depends on what you need from them. A good all round tyre is the Yokohama Geolander 015.

Steel wheels for off road practicality and cost!

Practicality wise, steel wheels are easier to bend off road and rust. Cost wise, Freelander 16" "Freedom" wheels are cheap and plentiful. Also bear in mind that most steel wheels aren't hub centric, which means the studs are taking the loads, and will fail with disastrous results.
