I think you'll find Alicatt has just masked his number plate out, leaving the year in Wink

All the 19s on the MY08 cars should be the same design as far as I'm aware Very Happy

United Kingdom 2005 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Rimini Red

The 19" RRS wheels turn up very regularly on Ebay and can be had for very little money (around £50 a wheel with poor tyres or £75 with decent tyres or £100 with new tyres). This is because so many RRS owners upgrade to 20" or 22" wheels.

An example is at

Isn't there a LR 19" wheel that has a style very similar to the 20", with a couple less spokes Question

I 've seen them in the brochure and IMHO look better than the standard 19" wheels. TDV6 - gone
TDV8 - gone

Here are some 17's that they claim are for an RRS, if you're looking for small for the RRS then these would do the job Thumbs Up

Or these brand new ones

There are 17" wheels for the RRS, BUT they won't fit on the TDV8 as the Brembo brakes are much bigger than the standard brakes, even with the Compmotive 18" wheels you still have to move the damper blocks so the wheels will fit. Sons of dogs come hither and get flesh

Careful with those 17s, I believe the RRS "S" - unavailable across the pond, so someone correct me if I'm wrong - would be the only trim with brakes small enough to accept those 17" OEM rims. Factory SE and HSE trims mount larger discs and calipers that would not clear them, not to mention Brembo equipped S/C, TDV8 and HSEs with Dynamic pack where even OEM 18s are too small, as others already mentioned.
