Fitting wheels on a Land Rover Defender L663

A Land Rover Defender L663 (from 2019) uses a 5x120 PCD and a centre bore of 72.6 mm. Any wheel must match the vehicle's PCD exactly: there is no tolerance, unless you use a PCD adapter.

  • PCD: 5x120 required. See all vehicles with 5x120.
  • Centre bore: the wheel must have a centre bore of 72.6 mm or more. If it is larger (as with most aftermarket wheels), add a hub centric ring wheel centre bore → 72.6 mm.
  • Offset: the original is ET41.5 to ET43. Compare your future wheel with the offset calculator (your vehicle is already selected) to see how many millimetres further in or out it will sit.
  • Fixings: thread M14x1.5, tightened to 140 Nm. The nuts or bolts must have the same seat (conical, spherical or flat) as the wheel.
  • Tyres: original fitment is 255/70R18, 255/65R19, 255/60R20, 275/60R20. For another size, check the diameter difference with the equivalence calculator (under 3 % recommended).

Generations of the Land Rover Defender

Previous generation: Land Rover Defender (1983–1990) — same 5x120 bolt pattern and same centre bore: original wheels swap between the two generations; check offset and diameter.

Does a Land Rover Defender L663 need a hub centric ring?

The centre bore (hub diameter) of a Land Rover Defender L663 is 72.6 mm. A wheel with a larger centre bore is fitted with a hub centric ring that brings it down to the hub diameter. A wheel with a smaller centre bore cannot be fitted.

What offset (ET) for a Land Rover Defender L663?

The recorded original offset is ET41.5 to ET43 depending on the version and wheel size. A lower ET pushes the wheel outwards, a higher ET pulls it inwards: check wheel well and caliper clearance before making any change.

What tightening torque for the wheels of a Land Rover Defender L663?

The specified tightening torque is 140 Nm for M14x1.5 fixings. Tighten in a criss-cross pattern with a torque wrench and check the tightness again after about fifty kilometres.

Which vehicles have the same PCD as a Land Rover Defender L663?

With the same PCD (5x120) and the same centre bore (72.6 mm), these include: Land Rover Range Rover Sport III, Land Rover Range Rover V, Land Rover Discovery V, Land Rover Range Rover Sport II. Offset, width and rim diameter still need checking for each vehicle.
