2007 with 2013 alloys (XS model)

With the help of J77 I've upgraded the alloys from the old 2007 model alloys to the 2013 model.

I think it looks pretty good, but then the old style are OK as well.


2007



2013


Just need a rear spoiler now to make it look a bit better.

Both look good, but for me it's the originals.

I like both sets.

It looks like LR have chosen to make the new XS wheels in the same style (5x double spoke) as the old ones but with a fresh design. The downside is the new ones look a little thinner. The old ones look 'chunkier' and fill the arches better, the new ones look more up to date.

At the end of the day though, it is practicality rules. The new set have 9mm rubber and will hopefully stop any erse-twitching moments in the wet.
