17" Wheels on a RRS?

Did any Sports come equipped with 17" wheels, or are there any that will fit, either genuine or aftermarket? '06 RRS Giverny/Alpaca

The Disco 3, sorry you're in the US, the LR3's 17" should fit, but I am pretty sure you will have to get them from Europe.

The basic S spec RRS comes with 17" alloys, so you should be able to source them via your local LR dealership.

I take it you only want them for offroading because they could never be described as eye catching.

Just FYI, 18" wheel/tire packages are often listed on eBay Motors from local (US) suppliers and are usually fairly cheap, such as:

Haven't seen too many 17"ers listed though (again, through US sources), and I check eBay quite often...

Umberto, I already have a set of stock 18's with Wrangler HP's in the garage. Still, not good offroad tire choices for them either, unless you go with the Nitto Terra Grapplers, which only come in a size one inch smaller in diameter that the stock 18" Conti's. Not my desire. I do check ebay all the time, thanks.

Yes, I want to use them off road. 17's have more tire choices available at this time.

EDITED: I originally said I had 17's. I WANT 17's! The post has been corrected. '06 RRS Giverny/Alpaca
