I expect my LR wheels to stand up to the off-road punishment I (very) occasionally give them. Plenty of bling wheels here in South London but I wonder how many would fall apart in the hills? Plus the insurance wouldn't be too keen, I suspect. |

Good argument. Taking that into account, there are a lot of purpose-built non-bling wheels especially for off-road conditions. Just not for Freelander 2. 2012 SD4 S |

I must admit that for the last 25 years LR is one company that has got their range of OE wheels spot on. If you want to see the reason why aftermarket wheels look crap , spend a day in Bradford, there, certain communities within the fine denizens of that metropolis are living testimony to the lack of harmony that occurs when one tosses a wad of ones hard earned drugs revenue in the direction of the local alloy megastore....... 2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership

Yes. I somehow hope that 20" wil notl be factory fit on Freelander 18" are the only common wheel/tyre size between the two cars and not keen on those being on Freelander either. |

20's are being evaluation on Freelander for 2014MY. With new changes to auto box's and ratios etc, the emissions will not be effected too much by offering 20's. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come......... |
