Thanks for the reply. I personally think they look great, but I suppose it's a matter of opinion. I've been reading a couple of other threads where it's been said they're not ideal, but will not cause a problem. So I just really want to know if it's true that I will need different wheel nuts or not if anyone knows? |

Style and taste aside, you need to be 100% on the insurable risk issue...you may invalidate your policy if the weight / rating of wheel and tyre combo are wrong...do your homework and make sure you are covered.

Your right, it's a personal opinion. I would echo the words above though....the RRS wheels we're made for the sport, a car that's a whole lot lighter than a FFRR with tyres often rated at 106....they're just not a good combo for the Full Fat.

Thank you both for the replies. The tyres are rated as 106w extra load. Are these adequate for the FF Range Rover for on road use? |

106 isn't enough, I 'think' it's 109 / 111 on FF tyres...mine are 109....but yes the RRS is a 106

Damn! I was really excited about buying them, but I'd better not bother if there's a safety concern. Thanks for all of your help |
