Can I have some of your views on this , please
Hi Guys.
Before I start , I know what Im doing might not be to some members tastes ,
(Bling on a D3) But with that in mind I would appreciate some input from those who might actual appreciate this modification .
In my Gallery , I have a sub Gallery called "wheel options" , I'm down to two options
and would be grateful if you could give me your views (what would you go for )
I have done a bit of a photoshop job to give a better impression.
Option one are Overfinch 22'' and my other choice are Mania Racing Vogue 22''
Cheers
Barry

would have to be option 2.
But have you considered the shadow chrome finish wheels that LR offer in a 19" option. I think they would look really good with your colour of motor and you could retain the original look.F&M

Option 1 as well
This is my opinion only, SE owners don't be offended, but Option 2 suffers from the same look as the SE wheels which I'm not keen on - too many thin(ish) straight lines.Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)
Agree with that Steve but (if forced) I'd still go for them over the Overfinch ones that look like they've come off something OCC would make! Generally prefer 'chunkier' spokes but they just don't look rightThe End

Option 1 definitly.
2 looks too fussy, and would be a b*g**r to clean

Option 2 looks like penny farthing wheels... so, given the choice between option 1 and eating my first born..... where's the knife & fork
