New wheels on my wagon

Thinking of putting this WHEEL TYRE combo on my S/C I think they look really nice

Been looking for ages to find a nice set of wheels then I see these wheels

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Range-Rover-Sport-3-...4366656671

Thought they look fantastic - wouldn't you agree??

Anybody else have these wheels? The GB UHP tyres are suppose to be good tyres right?

Any down side of putting 22" wheels on? Cheers Laurence.

Those wheels are lovely, they look a lot like the ones I had on my CSL.

Don't listen to all the hype around 22's, yes they are a bad idea for off road but seriously, how many of us do that!

I've had them for a while now and the ride is no different, and the Dealer didn't blink an eye at them at service time (apart from scratching them and then having to pay to get the sorted Wink)

Nice wheel, but dare wheels are not the strongest, especially for the RRS.

Freaky!! I had these wheels saved in my ebay watch list for ages! Do a search for APC cars, they have Onyx alloys for nearly 3k which to me look like re-branded Dare Nk1's.

My current number 1 alloy is Revere WC2, closely followed by Hawke Chaytons.

Next week I'll be back loving Overfinch Tigers, the week after, Supersports, then the NK1's et al Rolling Eyes

Ha...ah so have I - so I'm not the only nutter on here?? Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter

Wanted to know what they would look like on the RRs - Soon as I see the picture's on eBay of them on the black RRs I just knew - it was a sign I've seen the light - the good Lord has spoken to me Bow down Bow down Bow down

Now I've got a problem I was going out tomorrow to get a new 46"LED TV...... TV or wheels...........?? Doh Or both!!! Thumbs Up Cheers Laurence.
