What are these wheels off originally?
Having now got some 18” wheels and tyres for my D3, I am going to try and sell the 22” wheels it came with.
Does anyone know what these wheels would have originally been fitted to?

Think they are just aftermarket... they should have a casting number and manufacturer on the inside of the spokes...but I think you’ll find they were probably sold as a generic wheel.
Others will probably know better however....

Thanks. Will have a closer look in the morning. I found some RangeRover centre caps in the glove box so was wondering if they came of a FFRR or sport.

I have some original LR alloys if you would like a swap?

Thanks but already got some. Found a set of four 18” with nearly new tyres locally so all sorted.

They're not a Land Rover supplied wheel on any model. As said previously, look like a straight forward aftermarket wheel.Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

Anyway, they are gone and will be on someone else’s vehicle by now.

The NOT OE means not original equipment and the VIA JWL is the Japanese quality standard... so they were Chinese wheels made to a reasonable quality...the 900kgs is its weight bearing which I think is too light for a Disco...
The other markings relate to the size of the rims.....
Interestingly the AC looks like a copy of the Schnitzer markings which is an anolmaly...
Good luck with the new ones!

That was pretty much my interpretation too.
I think D3 wheels are rated at 940kg
Much happier with my 18 inches of genuine Landrover alloy on each corner. They don’t stick out past the tyre and dent by just looking at a a kerb.
