Land Rover Defender (1991-2016) RS-Forged Alloy Wheels - Rostyle Inspired
The renowned Rostyle wheel was an option for the Land Rover Defender 90 from its inception in 1983 right up until 1995 - meaning the Defender became the last vehicle that offered them as new.
Our Rostyle RS-Forged Light Alloy Wheel was designed with this in mind and created for the purist who desires a more retro-classic look for their Defender.
There are, of course, other Rostyle inspired wheels on the market but our Rostyle Inspired is much more deserving of its legacy. Look at this deep dish design and you will see that we haven't tried to replicate the Rostyle, but actually improve on it so that it is suited for the Defender of today.
In terms of practicality, the forging process used as part of the creation of this wheel means that not only is it much stronger and more durable, but also lighter than other styles you may find. This combined with the lower unsprang weight on our alloy, it allows the suspension to do a better job of stabilizing the vehicle - which needless to say is a big win for any Defender fanatic.
The wheel comes as standard in 3D Texture Paint but has been designed with split lines to accommodate custom paint options as shown in the image gallery, to discuss this please contact us before placing your order.
These wheels are not original equipment manufacturer (OEM) - these are aftermarket wheels designed and manufactured by KAHN®.
Frequently Asked Questions
1) How do I choose the right Defender alloy wheels for my vehicle? Match new wheels to your Defender's factory specifications (diameter, width, offset, bolt pattern) found on the driver's door label or owner's manual. Contact us if unsure; we can guide you to the correct fitment.
2) Can I fit larger alloy wheels on my Defender? Yes, larger wheels can enhance stance, but maintaining the correct rolling diameter is crucial for steering, speedometer accuracy, and ride comfort. Consult our specialists before upgrading.
3) What’s the difference between steel and alloy wheels? Steel wheels are heavy and durable. Alloy wheels, like ours, use lightweight aluminum for better handling, suspension performance, and corrosion resistance. They offer a more refined, premium look suited to the modern Defender.
4) How do I maintain my Defender alloy wheels? Clean weekly with a pH-balanced, acid-free wheel cleaner to remove brake dust. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive brushes. Consider a protective coating to preserve the finish.
5) How can I protect my wheels from damage? Avoid hitting curbs and potholes. Maintain correct tire pressure, as underinflation can cause rim damage. Regularly inspect for cracks, bends, or corrosion during cleaning.
6) Are Chelsea Truck Company wheels OEM? No, our wheels are exclusively aftermarket designed by KAHN®. They are engineered to complement the Defender's style while offering superior strength and performance compared to standard OEM wheels.
