    No... TDV8 & SC cars have Brembos. The 3.0TDV6 have slightly smaller brakes.

    I don't know about Gordon's rims but there are only 2x standard LR 19" rims which will fit over the Brembos.

    Sounds like I'm better off with 20" rims if the side wall is 10mm higher on the 20s do the 275s fit in the disco 4?

    Can I ask why you think it sounds better to keep the 20's considering what you intend to do with the vehicle? Seriously an extra 10 mm of sidewall is just a little bit better than having nothing extra, where as fitting 18's makes a massive difference in sidewall height and tyre selection.

    Have a look at Gordon's website, he drives a TDV8 RRS and he has 18's on his Sport and does some pretty serious off roading.

    Good luck with your decision.
    Cheers,
    Terry

    Thanks for the info Camel Landy, but according to the attached info only the SC V8 has Brembo's - is it right?

    The RRS TDV8 is the 3.6 ltr V8 - yes my 18" rims will fit. The Vogue with the 4.4 ltr V8 has the Brembos.

    Cheers,

    My MY2008 TDV8 (3.6) also had Brembo's. They deleted them from the MY2010 TDV8 Pity.

    SBD4... That'll probably be your answer then as the TDV8 on my drive certainly has Brembos fitted!!
