Which alloy wheels?
I finally got my black d4 today. Chuffed with it. It's got the standard 19" alloys and I m wanting to change them to 20s purely for cosmetic reasons. I am interested in what style of alloys others have fitted to their d4 and what in their opinion suits the car best? Any pictures or links to galleries appreciated. Also will I have to buy a 20" spare wheel? I presume it would wind up the diff with 3 20s and a 19 space saver or would it be ok for a short journey? Tia

i'll buy your 19s if the price is right, what style are they ?
tyres will be ok as long as they have the same circumference on each wheelDuncan

No offence but I don t like your original alloys. Those black ones are really smart! It's that style that I have on mine at moment.

No need for that, just stick a set of LTZ's on the 20's and sell the 19's to Duncan

Yes they will
But if there are tyres on the rims and you plan on using them, chances are they may be under the min load rating for a D4.
I'm running black stormers with LTZ's btw
