Modular wheels on a D4 ?
Anybody ever fitted or heard of 19” modular wheels something like the ones below on a D4? Considering a few options at the mo and wondered if it was possible?

Hey Andy, did you go for these or get any info from the company?
Also considering them for my D3 V8. I'd be looking to fit 18s though. I assume they fit over the larger breaks as they seem to appear pretty regularly on cars based in America, I assume most of them are V8/have larger breaks....

The only thing I’ve found out so far is 18” is as big as they go for D4, looks like I’ll be getting the current 19” wheels refurbed Matt black, not sure on your question best to give any supplier a shout and I’m sure they’ll be able to help

Hi Andy, there is a company called TUFFANT that do 18" steel modulars for Disco 4 . They're pretty expensive though , but i think the quality is very good.

Tempting, really wanted 19s as I’ve just bought a new set of ATplus doubt I’d make my money back selling them on, They have a WhatsApp contact I’ll see if 19s are available
I do like 18" Evo Corse DakarZero...think they look sweet on a Disco.Front Runner Rack, OEM Ladder & RAI, Tuff-Trek Foxwing, B'rakhah Ingonyama Expedition Trailer, RLD's Spare Wheel Protector, Bodsy's Bars, Empty Pockets! Member of Gloucestershire & Worcestershire 4x4 Response.

Yes the D3 18” rims will fit over the larger V8 brakes. As will a couple of aftermarket 18” rims. The Compomotive PD1881’s have been well tried and tested.
On my D3, which had the V8 brakes, I just fitted Discovery 3 18” rims. Over here they’re cheap to buy used. 2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

I’ve messaged emerald bespoke they do have some good deals, looking like I’m going to stick with my wheels and have them refurbed, as even my man maths can’t justify new wheels and tyres!! I was rather tempted by the EVO Corse DakarZero 8.5x18” tho 😬 (£2400 inc tyres for 5)

Oooh, they are very nice! Tough to justify though.
I ended up putting Pirelli AT + on to the standard wheels. Fingers crossed there's no need to go down in wheel size.

I went with Emerald Bespoke and got the Dakar Zeros . Wrapped with A02 rubber.
Very happy with their pre and post sale service.
Thanks for the sale Phil, and I apologise for having questioned whether the company was genuine or not.

Do these rims work OK with the TMPS? On my KTM the TPMS senders are fixed to the rim, does anybody know iff you can just transfer there senders from old rims to any replacements?
So tempted by these swanky rims.....D4 2014
