I have heard (James may confirm or deny) that LR are soon to start selling 22" LR wheels?

Incidentally im on the LR/Std side - although im also not big on wheels/tyres i just want them to do a job of work at the most critical times eg at 70 when emergency braking when wet - hence i believe in standard.

So what is standard? 17", 18, 19 or 20? The RRS can have all of them as per factory

Std fitment for a 2011 is 19 and 20 simple - these are what they test on, these are what are approved not just by LR but type approved.

Its like saying whats std for a disco 205/70/16 as fitted to a 200tdi can be compared to a d4!!

If LR launch a different size - great, then they will have type approved them, worked with the tyre manufacturers, tested them, worked out charactoristics etc...

Like I said im not a big tyre/wheel person...just want good quailty that will more Mike

2008 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Stornoway Grey

Well, on my 2008.5 door panel I have the size and pressure for 17, 18, 19, and 20.

Car came standard with 20, but my winter wheels are 19.
On my previous TDV6 standard were 20, but the winter wheels were either 18 or 17, cannot remember now.
All came from the official LR dealer.

Not so simple it seems '08 RRS TDV8

2005 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Alaska White

My wife "accidentaly" scratched left side on foothpath on VW Touareg 20" - so got 17" as a spare until they order new one. Only thing that was better on smaller size of wheels - car was more confortable...but on 17" and 17" are not 19" as for RRS...and 19" are not 22". And here is my point - When I see my Snow white RRS and I see those mate black Overfinch 22", I really don't care about comfort, air suspension, warranty, dealer and all blabla... that car look astonishing, outstanding and I feel happy when sitting in (even after three years). And thats important...nothing else. Feel Happiness from your RRS on 22".
