Could any kind soul confirm that Discovery Freestyle alloy wheels won't fit on a Defender with rear Drums??

Cheers!

Some say they won't some say they will. Alloys on fenders or series landies are just gay though, don't do it.

got them on mine and have rear drums, just had to remove the plastic centres from the wheels. Turning is crap though as the offset is not good.

Totaly agree, like modulars on a series

Want some 7" rims for a wider tyre as although my 235/85 x 16 greenway machos look OK, my 235/85 x 16 BF tracs (well worn) look bloody stupid!
