AFAIK the 23" aren't rated strong enough for the extra weight of the PHEVs, hence they could not be configured with them. Only Range Rovers since 1988 |

That's what I was told by LR too, CS.

We have upgraded to 23" Style 1075 Diamond Turned wheels. Works very well!

Won’t it be an insurance issue in the UK? MY23 Panamera E-Hybrid

I found a brand new set of 23” genuine RR wheels on ebay (just came off a car) they come with Michelin Primacy Tyres which are 115Y rated so these seem to be able to take the weight!? |

I found and was tempted by the same, but if you look on Gumtree you’ll find the same seller offering them for a few £00 less. |

I'd be more concerned about your insurer's views on fitting 23" wheels.

To me it seems 23s with the Michelin Primacy 115Y would be fine. Just need one of the Tyre pros here to confirm and I’ll make the jump as deffo more knowledge on here than my local JLR dealership! |

When I was looking for my current P550e in May 24, Beadles had their own demonstrator for sale (think it was in Carpathian) fitted with the 1075 23" wheels.

Pirelli has now got a new Scorpion version with 115Y rating: "Pirelli Scorpion MS HL285/40 R23 115Y XL LR, PNCS". So when JLR can get those tires delivered with new cars, I expect 23" wheels will be an option for new L460 PHEVs (and possibly to the new EV version?) L460 P550e AB SWB MY24
