    RRS Wheels

    Can anyone tell me what model RRS these 18" wheels would have come off.

    Thanks

    Standard on S spec or sometimes on SE spec here in the UK. SE spec usually came with a different style of 18" very similar to a rim available for the D3.

    I've seen a few full size Range Rovers on those wheels as well.

    Thanks Mike - not sure how that equates to our models as we never has the S, Se etc - our initial specs were equated to engines eg Base spec was the TDV6 then next spec up was the petrol V8 then top of the range was the Supercharged model.

    This is a similar wheel - you don't mean this one do you?

    No problem. Spec here is S, SE, HSE in TDV6, the petrols were (I think) just HSE spec, I don't think I've seen an SE with a petrol V8 here.

    S spec had those wheels in your original post, SE had 18", HSE had 2 styles of 19" with the 20" as an option.

    Something is nagging at me though that those wheels you posted up were also available as a 17".

    The photo you've posted is the HSE 19" rim, standard on the early RRS's and the one mine originally came with (fitted with MTR's). When demobbed from LR mine came with th newer 19" wheel.

    Some info here Range Rover Sport Tire Choices

    I'll do some digging and see if I can find photos of the different wheels.

    Garry, Mike,
    They are from the Normally Aspirated V8 here in Aus.
    We dont get trim level specs in Aus like the UK.
    Just TDV6, V8 & V8 Super Charged.

    Cheers

    So the ones in my original post are from the early V8s. I prefer the design to my standard TDV6 but was concerned the seller may have got information stuffed up and that the wheels may have come off something else like a FFRR or D2 with different offsets.

    Thanks

    They were certainly fitted to the FFRR over here, not sure about over there.

    Using fleabay, these are the ones I've turned up that were standard on the RRS.

    18" base (S) spec, also fitted to the FFRR



    18" mid (SE) spec



    19" HSE Standard



    19" HSE optional



    Then the 2 styles of 20" wheel, both of which were optional on any model I believe, the stormer & the V spoke.

    Thanks for the pics. The second one is what I have at the moment and thinking about buying the wheels in the first pic as a spare set to put some offroad rubber on.

    Cheers

    The 1st ones are easier to come by over here, I've not seen many of the 2nd type for sale at all. Keeps the tyre costs down as well as giving more options on size / brand from what I'm told.
