I'm biased as hell but I still think me RRS 20's are the nicest Ive ever seen on a disco.
Narpy Grill, tinted windows, Smooth leather wheel (TLO Group buy), ACM fitted (thanks TLO), Rear door loom and Row 2 & 3 audio switch upgrade, RRS 20" wheel change, 285 Cooper LTZ's Sat Nav Mod (until I get a Faultmate upgrade), Front & Rear lamp guards. 4x4 screen now switched on - Woody32, Follow me home reverse lights - woody32, Auto release EPB - Woody32. Off Road Navigation - Woody32. Remap + EGR's switched off. Full chassis clean and Waxoyl.

For what it is worth I put 19" LR alloys with Vredestein winter tyres on my D4 recently. Drove 1600 miles over 10 days. The ride quality was markedly better than with the 20" 511s with the Pirelli Scorpions. A little more body roll with the 19" but I got used to that. I've put the 511s back on now and beginning to think I will stick to 19"...

Thanks for the replies. I can imagine the ride is a little more harsh. My 19s are in a really shabby state and the tyres are at least half worn - I can upgrade to a mint 511s with new tyres for not much extra than a set of new tyres on my 19s (never mind a refurb too) so it makes financial sense. I'll report back once I've decided

Decided to go for the wheels, see below. First impressions are the car seems to handle a bit better - not quite so much body roll. In terms of the ride, very slightly firmer but not overly so - doesn't seem an issue to me but I do drive a 911 with very firm suspension as well!!

I'm not generally a fan of black wheels, but those look 'right' on your car
