United Kingdom 2005 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Rimini Red
RR Vogue Wheels & Tyres

I have bought a set of brand new Range Rover Vogue wheels and tyres through Ebay to go on the wife's D3. These are fitted with 19" Pirelli Scorpions in exactly the same size, speed and load rating as the standard D3 fitting and same offset, hub pattern etc. Her D3 needed 4 new tyres, which retail at £185 each and her wheels were fairly badly scrapped after Tim encouraged a bit of deep mud wheel spinning offroading at Weardale last year. The Vogue wheels and tyres cost under £600 and are brand new, so a lot cheaper than buying 4 new tyres and obviously get 4 shinny new wheels thrown in. And they look very good too.

My question is whether anyone has done this to their RRS yet ? I think these wheels would look good on the Sport and there are plenty available on Ebay as many people who buy RR Vogues immediately upgrade their wheels.

My winter tyres will come off soon (although it is forcast for 5cm of snow tonight around here, so not coming off just yet) and I really hate the idea of putting the horrible 20" Conti's back on (which I think are good for absolutely nothing) - so the idea of a set of new Pirelli's on shiny new Vogue wheels at about £150 a corner is quite appealing.... RRS TDv8 HSE Rimini

I didn't think the FFRR and RRS wheels were interchangeable without spacers... the offset is slightly different I think Confused

they will fit but the offset is deffinitely different - result being they look a little odd under the Sport's bulbous wheel arches.
