    Hi all,
    Found these on the LR UK website.
    The bloke claims that they fit the RRS Accessories Catalogue - Britpart - The Quality Parts for Land Rovers=

    Cheers, Craig

    There are plenty of 18" rims that will fit the 2005 to 2009 RRS and D3. The problem is with the 2010/2011 3.0 ltr cars, both RRS and D4. Most wheel suppliers don't seem to know that there is a difference

    Cheers,

    Gordon

    Wild card question...

    What if there was a replacement front brake setup with a caliper that would fit inside an 18" wheel?

    So does anyone know if there are any after market kits that might do the job?

    Hey guys...newbie to this forum and to the world of LR. My D4HSE 3.0 is two months old and I love it. It's off for bars/winch/aux tank/dual batt/drawers etc next week and off to cross the Simpson next year.
    In the same boat as you all. Looking for an 18" if I can make it fit.
    Actually struggling to get an aftermarket 19 to fit - I'm looking at having a set of MTRs on spare rims.
    Any help greatly appreciated!

    The 2.7 brakes should be able to be fitted and would be sufficient.
    Could be solved by engineer giving approval for brake calipers to be changed.

    I wasn't considering a down grade in brakes to the 2.7's system. I was thinking more of the Brembo system as used in the Range Rover as it seems there are 18" that will go over those brakes.

    Yes the brembo or V8 discs will fit 18 inch but not 17 inch.
    Anyone know a friendly engineer?

    The D3 V8 front discs are 350mm dia whereas the D4 3.0 are 360mm, but I don't know if the Brembo callipers will or will not fit. The rear callipers wont allow anything less than 19" but as the rear discs are the same as the D3's, D3 rear callipers will fit but perhaps require the D3 brackets too.

    You could always put the V8 disc set on when you need to replace them anyway.
    Engineers are not always needed for late models but I am sure someone on the other parts of AULRO would know one.
