Aren't these the two part alloys offered as a dealer fit option only?

TB, the local dealer has samples of all the alloys as well as all the interior trims on display in the showroom and I have never seen this wheel before. Personally I think it is a nice design, but I don't think it would suit the RRS. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

I knew that I had seen something similar somewhere.

Tim -- the wheels pictured in your first post are 20" BBS 2-piece alloys that were introduced for the FFRR in 1st quarter 2004.

Will those 5 spoke wheels fit over the Brembo brakes of the s/c? I love that look. 2006 RRS Silver/Black |

Nope. http://www.landroverusa.com/us/en/Vehicles...Wheels.htm Is it just me or does that Zermatt silver HSE Sport on top of the page appear to have a color coded bezel on its side vent? |

Biggles had the 2 piece alloys on his RRS.

Did anyone else buy them? What do people think to them? I am unsure about them sort of makes the car look heavy footed and slow, whereas the standard 20" wheels make the car look more nimble I reckon. L319 D4 HSE

Don't like the 2-piece RRS alloys in the photos Tim posted at all -- horrible clumpy looking things. Remind me of clogs for some reason I much prefer the sleeker 20" wheel options. I actually quite like the BBS alloys that Tim started the thread with. They look good on the FFRR.

Didn't appreciate that to be honest -- none of the 20" wheel options fit with the Brembos?
