Kahn & Overfinch (not sure about Revere) are TUV approved so you dont get any problems like this with them ... stay away from made in china wheels found on eBay!

Exactly! This is not so much a question of wheel diameter as of wheel quality.
If the wheel had no manufacturing defects and were properly constructed and dimensioned for the weight of the ff, this should not have happened.

Is it a real Overfinch?

My wheels are NOT Overfinch.....what I was indicating was maybe - Should we only buy 22" Overfinch as they are built for the car??? all smug in my new plug!

And that would be why they are twice the price of the cheap copies!!

I have sorted another alloy so I will probably just sell the alloys on fleabay.....and get a TUV approved set as the roads are screwed around here!!

The pain is chnaing all my wheels over again.....just bleeding done it the other week!!!!

I had pumped the pressures up to 38 on the back also and wondered if that didn't help.......?? all smug in my new plug!

clearly......think I might just bin them. Save anyone else the hassles!!

Just called Overfinch....awaiting a Aero 3 kit and wheels package deal price.......

might just do a facelift 2006 Vogue GT Ovefinch styleeee now I'm in the mood!!

ipod's in and working, now just doing the rear headrests this week, so should be mostly interior complete by next week.

Then off to the paint shop for a fresh lick of paint should the Overfinch kit come in a decent price. Thumbs Up all smug in my new plug!

Only got Aero front, sides and roof spoiler, and pletny of miles, deffo not official 22" wheels either.....nice tho.

I like black better in the Of'd kit as it showed the grey parts off better I think, but cheers for the link fella, if I got a deal on the bits then I think it's maybe the way forward.

I also like the cover bumpers done by Powerful UK for the similar rear bumper and sylish part chrome fronts, and they are less than a grand.....all depends if a replacement alloy would just crack again, it's a pain in the breasts!!!! Big Cry all smug in my new plug!

United Kingdom 2013 Range Rover Vogue SE SDV8 Santorini Black

The Powerful rear bumper looks nothing like the Overfinch close up - it just looks cack - save your money or go the real deal

The rear Overfinch bumpers are harder to get hold of than the fronts - there seem to be loads of fronts around.

His & hers Very Happy
