2010 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 HSE Santorini Black

Black rims

I consider a second set of rims.
My dealer proposes me a beautiful black set. Wonder if it's too much… A bit like a woman with black nail varnish.
They fit it with LR center logo.
Any idea ?

The same, silver.

Yes, sir, agreed. Black on black stinks, IMHO. 2010 TDV6 3.0 HSE Santorini Black Tan Full Leather

Mate - what ever you do DO NOT go for after market. I have had a set genuine OF rims in 20" (to keep the LR recommended size) and they buckled after a while - stick to OE and get it painted pink if it needs be...

BTW, I still think anthracite (or the colour as your door handles) looks the best on a black car

2011 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Santorini Black

what's critical for our heavy cars is the load rating.

kahn RSs are the business. pricey. but totally worth it.

i love this example

I agree with aftermarket, with a caveat.
Overfinch has several complaints regarding rims apparently.
Revere and Kahn seem top drawer.
In 20", some Kahn items are really not expensive.
Still waiting for a quite from Revere. 2010 TDV6 3.0 HSE Santorini Black Tan Full Leather

You could try spray painting your wheels than buying new ones. I painted mine. Easy job not even need to remove the wheels just make sure you do the protection and buy the right paint one that can with stand heat.

2006 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Rimini Red

I was wondering whether it will not be too much with black rims. but once I had to repair my rims and repaint them I decided to go black. And I love the look. I understand some may not like it.
