I am in oz. I have access to 18 inch rims for my 3 litre D4.....but I am looking for more blings.
I have found a company in the uk called premier wheels (they have a decent range of 18 inch rims), and they say they have 18 inch rims to suit the D4 commercial and gs models, but cannot confirm of they fit the se sdv6 version in Australia.
I would assume that the se sdv6 version in Australia would have they same brake package as the commercial and gs 3 litre models....but need to be sure before I shell out my hard earned.
Does anyone know if these models have little room to fit 18 inch rims or if they are in fact the same brake package ? I have contacted a uk LR dealer, but they had no idea, and I have been unable to locate a Uk email address for LR to query this with them.
Cheers,
Brett....

Think all three litre D4's have 19 inch alloys because of larger brake discs and hubs........ 2016 Discovery 4 Commercial

There are some Ausie 18"ers that fit over the brakes of the 3.0 D4, not LR. Cant remember the company though.

As Mowog said, I can get them in black, grey or silver.
The Premier 18" rims (on their ebay site) state at the top "D4/LR4", but when you ask for a list of compatible vehicles, it only lists the D3, so I suspect that as mentioned further up, it would fit a D4 2.7 ltr, not a 3 ltr.
Also note the offset is 38mm - illegal on a D4 in most states in Australia
Edit - actually, they should be _just_ legal - 15mm difference to std
Cheers,
Gordon ex - 2006 D3 TDV6 SE, silver, with lots of stuff - R.I.P.
ex - 2009 D3 TDV6 SE, silver, had lots of stuff too!
Now - 2010 RRS 3.0 TDV6, rimini red, 18" rims + Cooper LTZ, rear eLocker, Spider tuning box, GOE protection plates and rock sliders, GOE 3way shortened rods.
