    On the site they say they are suitable however I have not seen them mentioned here or on the Disco4 site.
    They look like a good alternative as an 18 inch rim.

    My car arrives in mid-late December, just before Xmas and comes with the 20inch black pack rims. Am I better suited to get the 19 inch black pack rims and add some better All Terrain gyres so I don't need to switch wheels?

    Thank you
    Chris
    Gordon had a set of Nitto 255/55/20 on his RR in Adelaide and they worked very well in the rocky terrain we were training in so I think you have a choice to retain your 20"s in the first instance and look at a more appropriate off bitumen tyre that suits your needs. From there the next step is obviously 18"s if you want to move to a higher load rating

    You'll need to email me with an address for quotes.

    I think 18" wheels is more about obtaining a higher profile tyre without the tyres hitting the vehicle in normal driving. With a 60 profile, you can let more air out, and the tyre will extend forwards and backwards and hence extend the length of the contact patch, which increases lift in sand - a lot. A 65 profile allows even more increases in contact patch and hence lift.

    Hi Gordon
    I have done so through your website.

    Can you please advise if you have not as yet received it?

    Thank you
    Chris
