Lug nuts

#1 Post by sawsdoc » Sun Oct 19, 2014 10:02 am

Hello everyone
I am fairly new to owning a 2006 Lr3 and am having a great time driving it!

I was looking for a set of used rims back when I bought it and found a set at a tire shop.
The sales guy told me they were off of a 2005 range rover and that they would fit right on.
Well when I was ready to put my snow tires on that I purchased at Kal tire they said the center was to small.
So I called the tire shop I bought them from and they tried to get out of being responsible for the screw up. They said the sales guy that sold them to me no longer worked there and they can't be held responsible for his screw up and I said that was irrelevant. Anyways after much discussion with them. They agreed to boring the centers out to accomadate the rim. Now that they fit they realized the bolt holes are to big and that I need bigger nuts. By then I'm very exasperated to say the least.
So I did some investigating on my own and am now fairly certain that the rims are from a Discovery 2.

So my question is will lug nuts from a Discovery 2 fit the threads on my LR3?
And if so, does anyone have any to sell?

Thanks to anyone reading my long story
