Unfortunately not safely. While both vehicles share the same size lug pattern and offset, the bore of the X300 Hub is 73.9mm vs the smaller Bore of the Disco which is only 70.1. While some people do overbore their center hubs to force a fit, you run the risk of compromising wheel integrity. And if you were ever in an accident, and the insurance company took a look, good luck trying to achieve a satisfactory claim outcome.
