When engine do you have? 2.7L or 3L. This dictates your options based on brake size.

3 ltr engine

Then you can’t use any LR wheels other than 19”. For 18” you can use TuffAnt steel or aluminium, or 18” Compomotive or MOAG Compomotive copies.

19" rims no problem in sand.
Go to 14psi, Sand Mode, DSC off and you can drive beaches all day every day without an issue.
LR rims have very tight bead locks which means little chance of peeling a tyre, too.

But ... going to 18's gives you a heap more tyre options, especially if you're touring.
Go Tuffant, MOAB or Compomotive. Others may fit, but make sure the load rating is correct.

Just acquired Nitto Terra Grappler G2 on 18" Moabs. This photo was to check out. Still running the 19" for daily work. Will put Moab's on after the Covid thing is past and I can travel again.

Good tyre choice and nice rims too☺

Does anyone know if the below has been addressed:
*The alloy aftermarket wheels had an issue with cracking across the wheel.
*The steel aftermarket wheels had some balance issues? (I dont know the details).

*I only ask the above so potential purchasers are aware of any lingering issues.
*Would be good if this was answered by the manufacturers/suppliers.
