Thanks to Andy AJS4x4 for his help.....good luck with your potential new purchase.

I'd keep hold of the original wheels, as when you come to sell the D3 it will be easier on the original/standard rims. Plus then you can either keep the stormers to put on your next Discovery or sell them. They'll be worth more to you off the vehicle.
Or you may wish to venture off-road in the future & not wish to damage the 20" rims, so you could put the SE rims back on.
Anyway it's traditional for forum members to hoard loads of rims/tyres.

what next????? there is far to many thing that can be done. a remap?
Take your point about keeping the old ones. I already got two complete exhaust systems one for a VX220 Turbo one for a Monaro VXR a set on VX220 Turbo wheels various other stuff.
She will go mad if I keep the SE wheels...... Might have to rearrange the garage somehow, there is a VX220 Turbo burried in there somewhere
** AJS still has a set to buy**

A big improvement IMHO is colour coded wheel arches - they would make a fantastic frame for your stormers! SOLD - 23my Range Rover Sport D300 Dynamic SE

Or just stick some Cooper Zeon LTZ 285/50/20 - 116 XL on the rims [and sod the scratching]
That way you're equiped for on/off road at all times.
Works for me
