    Oh yes I do, a set of (most probably) Falken 275/55-20 Wildpeaks is on the horizon. Then I can have some pictures of the RRS both on the track and off the track

    I believe the offsets are different. there's some info on what fits on post 62 in this thread

    L494 Off Road Tyres

    I haven't done much research on the offsets for other RRS, FFRR and Disco rims but they all have the offset stamped on them so that helps if the seller can be bothered to take proper photos....

    Edit - The link to tiresize.com in that post should have the offsests and rim size for the others

    HI Joe
    I know the thread is a bit old but I am thinking of same option. Can you share what you went with, where from ( I am in Adelaide) and the cost? And the results - happy etc?

    Hi Chris,

    I ended up sourcing a set of Range Rover Sport OEM 20" wheels in black and fitted NITTO RIDGE GRAPPLERS LT275/55R20.
    All up 5 wheels & 5 Tyres $3000.

    I'm in Sydney. The wheels I found in Melbourne and the tyres locally.
    I have only fitted them to my car in mid December after having them in storage for a while.
    I have been to Stockton Beach but haven't tested them on trails yet.
    At Stockton beach I ran tyre pressure at 20psi. It was first time with this size so had to guess but it ran perfectly. On road I'm running 38psi.

    The NITTO RIDGE GRAPPLERS are definitely noisier and you will notice it coming from 22" Continental Cross Contact tyre setup.
    Having said that the noise is not that annoying and you quickly get used to it. They are a bit sketchy on wet roads though and don't feel as planted as the Continental 22" tyre setup I was running.
    I would be happy to leave the NITTO RIDGE GRAPPLERS on full time but my wife prefers the 22" look.

    When I was up at Stockton Beach in early January the tyres fitted definitely got the attention of other 4wheelers. You can definitely see the aggressiveness on these tyres and it shocks a few people when you tell them you take the Range Rover Sport off-road. It definitely toughens the car up.

    I went with the RIDGE GRAPPLERS as I am still keeping my 22" for general road use. If you're not going to swap between the 22" & 20" I would recommend the NITTO TERRA GRAPPLER G2 ALL TERRAIN as they are not as noisy.

    If you need any other information then let me know.
