Russell take a look over on the tyre section of Disco3 - they have lots of useful stuff there. I believe Pirelli have now got a 19" All Terrain that is suitable for the RRS so you will get a higher side wall for off roading and relatively quiet high speed running on road. Normally 19" is the smallest "standard" wheel/Tyre that your TDv8 will be able to wear because of the Brembo's

Unfortunately you also have to order something like 100 sets/400 wheels as well........................... I looked into a group buy last year and Bowler/ Compomotive would only do them based on a special production run without the Bowler logo cast into them |

But people have bought these before for their RRSs.... are you saying they need a job lot to have them with the Bowler logo in them? |

Just keep the 20" rims and fit a set of 20" Cooper LTZ all-terrain tyres. 'ronp' on disco3 can sort you out and uses some himself, the sidewall is higher than the 19" MTRs:

Also don't forget MY06 FFRR 19" rims with MTRs or ATRs. Make sure 7 spokes, old 6 spokers won't fit. Pics of rims with MTRs in my gallery on the disco3 site. |

I thought the Bowler wheels needed the harmonic dampers turned around or removed? Is this a new wheel they have made that fits with the Brembo's? "UNDERSTEER" ----is when you hit the fence with the front of the car. "OVERSTEER" ------is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car. "HORSEPOWER" ----is how fast you hit the fence. "TORQUE" -----------is how far you take the fence with you. |

They look really cool, but do they fit on the RRS or do you need spacers of some sort? "UNDERSTEER" ----is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.

Hi DSL, Do you have some of these for sale or do you know where to buy them? Thanks, Russell. "UNDERSTEER" ----is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
