how many members have range rover sport 20' wheels on their ffrr, and if you do what tyre size do you have fitted and how does the ffrr handle with these wheels... |

Isn't the offset wrong as per about 8 billion "what wheel" posts on the forum? Land Rover Addict

yes the offset is different to the ffrr wheels and makes it come out farther .. |

Doesnt that put extra strain on the hubs/bearings that they weren't designed for? |

I would probably put them on Ebay, but would hopefully get at least £500. |

Scarey if you really want to sell them then put them on the For Sale section of RRSport.co.uk - there are always folks looking for genuine RRS 20" wheels, especially Stormers, over there, from experience of having run an RRS on standard 18" wheels (they came on the SE versions as standard) and then a 2nd RRS on 20" wheels that I also had 2 sets of 19" Wheels for, the ride was always nicer on the 19's with the winter tyres fitted, purely because there was more sidewall to absorb the bumps, the 19's also were a lot easier to keep unscuffed!. 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes |

They look nice - How decent are the tyres? |

That's why I wouldn't use them, even though when I mentioned it here someone said the difference is so small it makes no difference. But I'd still never fit them. Any critical components should be original and designed for the car IMHO. |
