100% yes sir...

Have been using them for 3yrs now and are SOOOOO much nicer...
A, look far better (bigger side wall)
B, protect wheel better
C, more comfortable
D, wear as well if not better than Toyo Proxes

Win Win Win Thumbs Up Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

i got my FF with a set of bogus tiger 22's, and new wider tyres. the drive was nice, but eventually I had one crack, (minor) and I took them off. one other was cracked too! then I fitted genuine land rover SC 20's on standard size tyres. the drive was far better, much lighter, and manoeuvrability was better at parking speeds etc.
I know that Overfinch wheels are sort of 'accepted' and 'licensed' BUT, I was reminded, how an insurance company would be using harsh tactics in court, to not pay out, if there were not genuine LR wheels on the car, even if it was parked!
even when you are dead, they are EVIL!

did that Olympus wheel hit a pothole, .........or an anvil?

sobering!

Not a copy Stan... You can tell copies instantly...

I would assume a faulty wheel from Rimstock? Bet they would appreciate a look at it Whistle

Yes original a wheel that I bought from OF in good faith to replace another buckled one only a couple of months ago..

I questioned with Jordan and have been sent the TUV approvals - perhaps I need to push harder on the manufacturer as I have bought 2 wheels to replace buckled ones as well as now this one..

OF has "sold" me a set of replacements 21's from a sport so I plan to get all mine off the car and checked out... another lot of £.............

Really worrying how the wheel did that..... I will get on to rimstock today.
