Ahoy, hoy Jase.
Can I call you Jase? We've only just met.
Ignore the grumpier members of the forum, they are misanthropes and curmudgeons of the highest order as I'm sure you will agree?
Range Rover wheels will fit with a little work but you need a mate to help you. Do you have an angle grinder? Marvellous.
Simply grind off all the studs on the axle, then get your mate to hold the wheel in place. When you are sure it's lined up, wrap around the axle and the wheel with good quality Gaffa tape in concentric loops. When complete move on to the next.
As I'm sure you suspect it's not a permanent solution but will last many weeks. When it starts to wear through just wind another roll around it.
Great thing is that you can easily switch from black to silver wheels in a jiffy or plenty of other colours.
I was thinking a 'final solution' (when you've exhausted your local supply of tape and 'no more nails) might be to offer the wheel up to the hub, and use self tappers with penny washers on them screwed tightly into the hub?
