Project Green Oval Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Hi are the wheel stud patterns the same for the defender and series 2a? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuko Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Yes they are, but if you try to use a Defender rim on a 2a you'll see that you will need to replace the wheel studs as they are too short. Todd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 also Series 2a studs are a different diameter (and thread) to a defender. Series 3 are the same though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tuko Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 PGO, you didn't say why you wanted to know the answer but I thought I should also add to the above, that Defender steel rims will fit but you can and will run into clearance issues with the hubs if alloy rims were something you were considering.

Hi Todd i have a series 2a swb 200tdi pics at project-green-oval.fotopic.net i found some defender steel rims 205/80/r16 with good michalin tyres not far from me on e bay for £50 bargain i thought, thats if they would fit. Just want some ok tyres that might be a bit quieter and bigger. Best wishes David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
