    Possible rim size choices.

    Friend has a 2020 Sport. I don't know spec level as the car isn't here, and the said friend says that "it's white'. He wants to go down in rim size to fit higher profile tyres. It's a daily, and is used to tow a mid size van. No off road. What rim sizes are available?

    Second that.

    I'm sort of new to the L494, so not sure how many brake variants there are. There are at least two. I have a 2019 SDV6 and the 18" Compomotives that I retained from my D4 fit .... albeit with very little distance between the rim and caliper. There are Brembo brakes fitted to RRS ... not sure if they are bigger or smaller. You'd think bigger, as I believe they are fitted to the more powerful cars, but they could be a more efficient brake.

    Anyway, as Tombie says, talked to Andrew at Tuffant ... once your friend has some specs, I'm sure Tuffant will let you know about the art of the possible.

    The Tuffant recommendation has been passed on. Thanks.

    Genuine 20's will go over Brembo's. There is a fair tyre selection of 20's.. not much at 19...

    I have a set (actually 2 sets of 4) genuine RRS rims fitted with 275/55R20 tyres, these have more side wall than the LR recommended 275/50R20's. These are my off-road wheels and tyres, around town I run my 21 inch rims with 275/50R21's, again a taller tyre than the LR specs. Second hand RRS rims are generally readily available online and cheap.
