Stormer 20 or 22 inch?

Another thing amigos:
I have the stormer 20's from my rrs SC, they have scratched easily as like other people here, but my dealer wont change them.
I am looking to buy the stormers in 22 inch, andthey even have them blackened? Try to find the in ebay, my car is the bright silve Z, whatever its called, what do you guys think? will it vary a lot the ride? I found Pirelli Scorpion Zero Rosso, normal thread OR" SUMMER THREAD" whats the difference, I am not fluent in englis h terminology! So what do you think?
295-35-22? I found the Rinspeed 23's too expensive and maybe too much allready. I WAN TO BUY MY WHEELS!!! Im like a baby for Xmas, sorry amigos!
And what about the taillamps? 400 pounds! crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
I should send min paint, dont you think?
Also, ANY ONE FIND THE CAT-BY-PASS-PIPES for the RRS SC yet? I know Larini told me not yet, and I am a dealer of them so its good info!
paying 2000 -2500 us dollars for the high performance Cats is high in my list!
Anyways guys, thanks a lot for everything ok?
Take it easy.
Gracias!!!
JJB

Here are a couple of US based RRSs with 22" Stormer replicas. Say what you will about ride degradation and chiropractors, they look pretty f***ing good... Wink

This is what I like about the Stormer design - they can get big and not look out of place. Consider those horrendous Kahn 22s (the RSX or whatever they are called) and they just look obscene (imho of course) Very Happy

I like these umbertob = 100% look the business. I also like the colour coded door handles etc etc etc Thumbs Up

What do they cost in the USA for the replica 22" stormers ? and what size tyre do they tend to opt for?

I think the owner paid about US$ 3,000 for these from a company in Florida, and that was inclusive of Yokohama Avid 285/35/22s. Note that the rims are painted black, which really makes them look perfect on this color coded Sport (which we baptized "Darth Vader" on rangerovers.net...)

The white sticker on the back window is some sort of barcode for the community the owner lives in.

So where do I buy the stormers in theUSA?

I wonder how the blackened ones would look in a silver RRS.
Please help me find the guy who bought those wheels in the USA please.
Thanks!

I wanted to go for the black ones but the finish concerned me. The polished look can easily corrode in the awful british weather. Unless you obviously wax them regularly which can be a bit of a PITA.

Went for the silver ones which look great and OEM. Pics can be seen in my gallery. 2006 '56 RRS TDV6 HSE, Java Black, Alpaca Interior, PTI, Sidesteps, 22" Stormers wrapped in 285/35/22 Toyo Proxes, Java Framed SC Grille, Java/Zambezi Side Vents, Matt Black LR3 Door Handles, Matt Black Lower Tailgate Trim, Colour coded lower body trims, Semi Smoked Taillights, Chrome Mirrors and Fog Light Bezels, Reflex Exhaust Back, Full Pentagon AutoGlass Privacy, Tasmod Sills, Clear Side Repeaters, pics in gallery!

He is forum member Bossman on rangerovers.net, stop by and say hello... Smile

I think he got them from an outfit in Florida selling these rims on eBay.

Quite simply...the ride quality goes to crap!

Depends on how good your roads are. Here in Cyprus, they are pretty grim as they are in the UK.

Dunno about your part of the world.

Got to say, those black Stormers look SOOOOOPERB! Runner up - 2009 Best Avatar Award Sad
