Land Rover Defender rims: Robustness meets design

The Land Rover Defender - an icon with all-round talent

The Land Rover Defender stands for adventure, off-road capability and British character like no other vehicle. The new edition of this classic combines state-of-the-art technology with the legendary robustness of its predecessor. Whether in everyday urban life or in demanding off-road use - the Defender impresses with its versatility, high towing capacity and striking appearance. The choice of the right rims has a decisive influence on style, performance and usability.

Original Land Rover rims

Depending on the model and equipment, the Defender is available ex works with 18 to 22-inch steel or alloy wheels. The designs are functional and designed for off-road capability. For more individuality, sporty accents or special off-road properties, it is worth taking a look at alloy wheels from popular brands.
