I want to upgrade the 18 inch alloys on my Discovery 3 GS- should i go for 19 or 20 inch. Have heard that 20 inch on discovery 3 are to firm and give a slight wobble on sharp turns. All advice is very welcome.
Thanks

Depends on the wheel, but the 19's have more off roady tires available, if that's a factor... 17 Discovery 5 HSE Si6, Fuji White on brown | 07 LR3 SE 4.4 Java Black on Alpaca
