What are these wheels called?

Now then,

I remember these wheels from yonks ago but can't remember whether they were original fitment on D4, RRS or FFRR.

However, I want some. What are they called?

Cheers

"Stormer" Alloys - lots of fake ones so check the markings are correct

Ran Stormers years ago…. first on my Java D3, then on my previous Fuji D4.
Always reckoned (& still do) that it was one of the best (& timeless) set of wheels for the Disco.
Even with today’s fancy wheels, they still look the business to me.

Pic just for you DD (as you have a white D4). Thumbs Up

That's them.
Stormers, I'd forgotten the name.

I always liked the look, especially in black.

Looks good on your Fuji White Ron Thumbs Up

That's the look I'm going for I reckon.

It's got the 'Landmark' style wheels on at the moment which I'm not too keen on although they might look good powder-coated in black.

They were originally RRS alloys. They were never offered in D3 or D4. Had them on both my D3’s and first D4

No, don't believe they were ever offered on the Disco.
The wheel originated from the Range Rover Stormer concept vehicle ... the precursor to the RRS.
And yes, fitted to the FFRR and I believe RRS.

Mine were aftermarket wheels ....but good ones.
Bought them around 2006 before all the cheap Chinese copies arrived.
Over my time with them I must've covered around 200k [even off-road] with no issues.
Mine did have a wider offset to the standard oem ones.
Ran them in Silver, then Dark Chrome on the Java, then Gloss Black on the Fuji.

I do believe there were some fitting issues on the Disco with some oem models, think it was something to do with how the nuts seated on them, but can't be sure [Devonchilliman had that issue].
Also there was a 'dimple' pattern on some, but not on others..... but can't recall what that was about.

@Ron. The fitting issue with smaller sleeve nuts and “dimple” was on the 20” flat faced L322 alloys, never an issue with stormers. I know as I had both styles.

No 20” alloys were ever offered by LR for the D3, only D4.

The 'dimple' thing was around the stud pattern, but don't know if that differentiated oem from copies.
Mine didn't have "dimples" and mine were copies.

Just looked back at some old pics of mine, and they all had dimples around the nut holes

I believe the dimple issue was on L322 FFRR 19" wheels. First post here: https://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/topic13859.html

I did think you had spacers fitted in your pic. The stance does look better I must say.

Did the offset affect anything?

No DD, no spacers fitted, that’s all down to the wheel offset.
Didn’t have any issue with them.

Only issue I had was initially with the tyres.
Ran 285/50/20 LTZs on the D3, then when I swapped them over to the D4, I got rubbing on the (more recently added) front chassis leg.
Changed the tyres over to 275/45/20 and no rubbing (& currently on same size with a grabber AT3s).

But eventually ProSpeed made me some steering lock stops (now currently on sale from them) and I went back onto the 285/50/20.
My pic above is with 275/45/20 btw.
