Sawtooth alloys

SnapT · Apr 28, 2015

Hi folks, new to landrover and the forum, quick question on alloys if I may. I have a brand new defender 90 xs being delivered shortly and it is coming with boost alloys and wrangler tires. I am considering changing the alloys for black gloss sawtooth. Is it a straight swap from 16in boost to 16in sawtooth, or do I need anything special? Also, does the locking nuts from the boost alloy fit/suit/match on the sawtooth alloy?

Thanks in advance

Straight swap and same nuts

Have you chosen black Sawtooth because that is the colour you want or because that is the colour generally available?
I have Anthracite Sawtooth on my 90, far prefer them to the black offering.

Hi guys, thanks for info on swapping alloys.

I was going for the black pack look. My 90 is in cores grey with black gloss contrast roof.

Interested in any pics you could share showing the Anthracite Sawtooth alloys. Didn't think this alloy was available in any colour other than black.

Any tips on best place to source these alloys?

You have two choices, genuine from LR or aftermarket. They cost more than the black but personally I prefer the Anthracite.
