Thoughts on my 2005 Disco 22" Overfinch Alloys

This is my second disco 3 I've had the pleasure of owning, regretted selling the first one....

I've upgraded the rear light, grill, and refurbed the alloys, and put leather hse seats in the front today, although can't get the electric drivers seat to move yet Neutral , refurbed steering wheel coming this week and remap being done soon Smile

Far too fussy for my liking. Must be a pain to keep all the corners clean. Just my opinion though, if you like them that's great. Thumbs Up

Not my cup of tea fella but whatever floats your boat. If we all liked the same it would be a bit boring Thumbs Up

I would lose the red from the intake and brake calipers. On the wheels,a lass on the school run has them on her disco and they are just a bit too much. But hey what do I know being an ol duffer. Very Happy Personally I like the look of 20" stormers better.
Enjoy your car as you like it though Thumbs Up

You have one of the best production off road vehicles in the world. To me, fitting rims of that size is a bit like having the best divers watch in the world and then spending a lot of money modifying it and making it no longer waterproof in the process.

If you like them though, that's all that matters. it would be a dull old world if we all liked the same things. Thumbs Up

The 22's look a bit 'drug dealer' with some wheels, I quite like your style though, seem to look better on the black car, maybe because the colour has more depth and shine
