Redbourne wheels Notingham 9,5J20
Hi to everyone, I fit on my D4 a wheel (to test it) Redbourne Notingham 9.5J20 ET32.
With this offset the rim is more flared of 2 cm than the OEM Land Rover.
As I feared (and this is the reason why for the moment I bought only one wheel) under maximum steering the tire rubs slightly on the "famous" additional strut of the D4 frame at the point highlighted by red arrow in the last photo.
What would you do? Would you like to fit these rims or you can remedy somehow by adjusting the end stops of the steering so as to reduce steering a little?
Is it worth it?
Anyways the rims are of googd workmanship, the max load is 1045 kg and, as you can see in the picture, it fills perfectly the wheel archs.

Nice looking wheels, but they clearly don't fit!
Get some wheels with the correct offset, and width, to fit the vehicle properly.Richard

Redbourne Wheels are made specifically for Land Rover Discovery and Range Rover Sport with the correct load rating and other features.
I think I should adjust the end stops of the steering so as to reduce steering a little. It's need really few millimeters. I read something on this topic somewhere in the past.
I'm look forward to have some suggestion about this
Thanks a lot

If they advertise the wheels specifically for the Disco then perhaps you could ask Redbourne for advice

They may well advise against fitting 285w tyres, and suggest that they will fit if correct 255 50 tyres are used?Long succession of Disco's since 2001...
