the header at the top seems to read they are weight rated at 960kg - so should be OK.

2010 FFRR 20" 6 spoke wheels. I believe they are called Style 14.
Does anyone know if these fit or are likely to fit a D3?

Failing that, I'd send the guy an e-mail and ask him.
If he says 'yes they do' then you find they don't, at least you've got some re-course.
Oh and remember to check the load rating on the tyre he offers....... always on the road less travelled 🚧

I've had 275/45x20's on the RRS Vspoke 20s, and there is only about 8, maybe 10mm clearence from the inside sidewall to the suspension upright, so I'm fairly convinced 295's on genuine LR RRS V Spokes are a no go.
I think RonP's stormers are copies (no offence RonP), and have slightly more offset, so the 295's are OK.
It may be genuine LR Stomers are OK, I just dont know anybody with them on a D3 with 295's on them.
From a visual standpoint, I think my 20" RRS's with 275/45's look smaller in the wheelarch than my 19" RRS with 255/55's on. (pics of both in my gallery), so gone back to the 19's (till I get bored and try some 22's maybe )

hey guys. greetings from usa. i have followed this thread ALOT but never posted. wife is in the market for lr4 and wheel upgrade is important to me.
if these stormers are copies; who makes them and what is the offset please
i am hoping for 295/45/20 so i know that is a tight fit and the offset is likely critical
also; what is your opinion; do you think stormers on a 2010 would be like going back in time; too dated
thanks\!!!!!

Ok, just trying something out here to post a photo so please excuse if i have it wrong. Here's the 20s now on the '05 V8 HSE. I reckon they're nice. The tyres are a Nexen Rodian HP 295X45X20 114 Load rating. Thanks to Ronp and others for advice along the way. I also did a full Disc rotor and pad changeout at the same time to avoid additional wheel handling - a dead easy job by the way (if you have the Torx50).
But the Cheese went and scraped them the next day on an angry kerb! I was wild and apparently i had no right to be. Oh well. Here goes the photo. Check my gallery for a couple of others.
i have looked through your gallery and i LOVE this look|!!! But arent these crazy expensive like \CRAZY
are there any cheaper knockoffs

They are overfinch (or overfinch style) - Do a search for Super 7's, as they seem to be called this in the aftermarket world. There are chinese copies of these out there, although I know where the genuine ones are cast, and its in the UK.

Thanks!!
Do you know the approximate cost of the Overfinch?
What do you think of the Stormers on LR4? Is that mixing eras? Should I instead go with something that hasnt been out prior to 2010?
Much appreciate all the help on this site; specifically this thread!!

I really like the look of yours in your gallery; very buff look.
can you confirm those are 295/45/20? Looks like that is the max that could be stuffed under!!
Can you confirm if the Stormers are LR or knockoff brand? What is the width and offset on them...maybe that is what allows the 295?
Great look...I am considering copying that over here in the US on a LR4...maybe with chrome stormers?
Do you think the stormer style is ok to put on 2010 and beyond (timeless)?

http://www.disco3.co.uk/wiki/index.php/Rim...iscovery_3 shows that wheel fitted with MTRs (black D3 side on with raised air intake/G4 stickers/DISCO3 stickers in rear side windows) - so it would appear so yes 06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
Any issues with the site let me know!

Thanks for the prompt reply Martin.I had looked at that picture but wasnt sure if the MTR's were wider than the standard 255.
