Hi Everyone

I have recently bought a range rover sport 06, the problem im having is it is optioned with 20" wheels and i have tried it off road, its ok for general off road but no good on the beach in the soft stuff. i have checked the g4 spec has 18" with perelli scorpions, is this the best option for oz outback?
and does anybody know where i can get 5 18" wheels from? i intend useing my rangie for serious off roading

thanks

Welcome
Love Esperance!!!
We have a few good members down there.
If your RRS is a V8 you may have issues as they have bigger brakes.
If you dont get a satisfactory answer here I suggest you post similar on the D3/D4 area of AULRO D3 / D4 Zone - Australian Land Rover Owners (http://www.aulro.com/afvb/d3-d4-zone/)
as the RRS is basically a hotted up D3.
ENJOY
Andrew

Hi Bluewaters & Welcome to an Excellent Forum.

All G4 spec vehicles came out with 19" rims shod with Goodyear MTR's as Goodyear sponsered the G4 Challange.

Depending on which model you have V8 Petrol, S/Charged V8 Petrol or TDV6 (No TDV8 option in 06MY) you may be only able to go to 19" rims. If it is the TDV6 then it opens a wide range of tyre selection for you if you can fit the 18" rims to it, If again you have the Dynamic pack fitted to your TDV6 (Brembo Brakes & Dynamic Suspension) again you are subjected to only 19's or above.

Good Luck & happy hunting.;)
