I think that on these forums there are not very many unhappy TDv8 owners posting - most of us have our permagrin welded on now. There are not that many of the 1622 members here who have complaints about their S/C's / 4.4V8's or Tdv6's - yes there are some but on the most part the majority of problems reported here are nor serious, but I will admit there have been some VERY upset owners, but far and large they a re a tiny proportion of the posters here and for the most part those people have either had their cars replaced by LR or have sold them on and moved out of RRsports. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

I intend to stick with that forum-hopefully as a happy owner. Next week i have to get some nice alu wheels in 19"(it is very strange down here at the LR dealer they are selling Alu sets in 19" but they do not even have a picture of that wheels just a catalogue no.1007D which means nothing to me, because I would like to see how it looks like at least on picture so that probably I will have to buy some alu wheels which are not original Big Cry and some good winter tires (most likely Pirelli Ice and Snow) than I will pray for a lots of snow this winter Thumbs Up

Markos.... No1007D isn't in the UK LR wheels catalogue - I think you need to ask your dealer why the ones that were on it when it left the factory are not still on it.................................. I smell a rat with selling you wheels that you shouldn't need. TDV8's come with alloy wheel RRC500681MNH, 20" 10 spoke alloys here and if you go to this website http://www.landrover.com/gb/en/Vehicles/Ra...wheels.htm you can see all the factory fitted alloys for all versions of the RRSport. I think you need to ask your dealer if the wheels they are supplying are approved by Land Rover, that they are strong enough for a 3t car and why when LR say it comes with 20" wheels they want to supply it with 19's 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Thank you Tim for the answer I didnīt express myself correctly. The car will come with 20 inch 10-spoke alloy wheels and summer Conti tires but I need also winter tires and I would rather have a separate set of winter tires on 19" alu wheels and there is a problem

Ah OK mate I understand - I have just bought a 2nd hand set of 19's from a forum member and put a set of winter tyreson them for my Tdv8. they are the RRC502280MHNV spoke alloys - You can get sets here and on ebay but becareful with the ebay ones - often they are not OEM wheels and may not be up to the loading 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Like wise here , I got the TDV8 with 20" 10 spokes and then bought a set of 5 19" wheels drom a forum member, they are now shod with GY MT/R. I did notice that the load rating for the 19" wheels is higher than the rating for the 20". Sons of dogs come hither and get flesh
