You would need to use wheel spacer adapters from 5x120 to 5x108 but keep in mind that the recommended offset for the wheels should be between ET 35 and 50 for Freelander 2. So check the ET on the 22" Kahn wheels to see if you can fit them. I believe the ET would drop to 10-20 so the wheels will go almost outside the arches. |

just a warning, i have read a few reports about Khan wheels cracking, so make sure the load rating are correct for the FL2/LR2 and most of all make sure they are genuine

I did email Kahn but I did not receive a response. I will try calling and emailing again. I did find some adapters to change the pattern to 5x120. They are 20mm thick. |

I know! I am new to this forum so it would not let me message him. I just chatted with someone from Kahn and they are supposed to get back to me later today with some answers. I will let you know. I really like the content on this forum and it is actually very active which is great.... |

I run Kahn Cosworth alloys on mine on Pirelli Scorpian Zero tyres which are M+ S rated . The tyres are 265/35R22. They are a direct fitment for the FL2 /LR2 not even spigot rings are required. Existing LR centre caps and wheels nuts including locking nut all fit back on. You can't even tell my car is running 22s when driving in on tarmac or a country road. If you race over speed bumps they yes you can tell. I run my 22s in summer only and keep the stock 19s for winter use. Far too much salt thrown on roads here with NO GRIT have the time.

Awesome Pictures. Thanks for the welcome, I am enjoying this forum . Also, thank you for providing that information. I am waiting to hear from Kahn with the details for which wheels will be a direct fit and how I can go about purchasing them. Unfortunately I do not have the body kit or trim if that is what you call it, so I have to play around with some photos. I imagine with 22" wheels it will make my car appear higher or make the wheels appear larger than yours since your trim brings your body lines down lower and adds dimension to all sides of your Rover. I love the trim, but I would like new sneakers first. |

Each to their own but I have to say, I think they look awful! Looks like a hotwheels toy car! FL2 HSE Lux 2011 SD4 Gallway Green.

Everyone has the right to an opinion . I just think the Freelander and LR2 wheels look too small and they should have a 20" wheel from stock. The 19" wheels from stock look decent as well, but just decent. Hotwheels would be more like a 24" wheel and larger. Luckily they make wheels in all sizes so everyone is happy. |

Yes I think on mine with the styling pack (bodykit) the wheels do look around normal size. I think if you had my freelander in an LR showroom it could pass these wheels off as an optional upgrade. Does your car have painted sills or black plastic? If it's black plastic lower trim I think they will look huge even bigger! But it's your car so do as you please if you get 24's for it you can service it without an aid of the ramp! Imagine the savings you'll make in the long run MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior MY15 Xenon Headlight Conversion MY17 RRS SVR - Estoril Blue Cirrus/Ebony 🪣💺’s |
