2012 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV8 Santorini Black

Wheel Advice

I am sure this question has been asked before but here goes anyway. What type of wheels, preferably original land rover, would you suggest that I fit to my 2005 bonatti grey range rover TD6 vogue? The car is totally as it came out of the box at the moment and is still running its original wheels and tyres but will soon need a new set of tyres so I thought I might as well change the wheels at the same time as I have always thought they look a little 'small'. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Shaun. 12MY Black FF VSE

2019 Range Rover Vogue SE SDV8 Santorini Black

The genuine Range Rover Vogue 4.4 wheels, 19" 5 spoke look good, nice and chunky and you can find them on eBay easily

Its not recommended to go up to 20" wheels with the TD6 as you will get vibration through the steering.

Like these:

or if you want a more modern look, these:

Or even more modern!

you could keep the 18'' and have a comfortable wallowy ride or go to 20'' and have a harsher ride but better road holding and better looks.. a compremise is 19'' which gives you the best of the other two with comfort and road holding but they dont look all that good...

...or you could go to RRS wheels ,but thats another story, best read the forum for that option..

also if you do go 20'' you'll have vibrations when stopped in drive because of yours being a td6.. ... - .- -.

Crikey, that was quick! I guess it had better be 19" then, I always wondered why land rover did not fit the 20" to the TD6

A big to Dan for giving me a good deal on my wheels and tyres and sending them so quickly.
Thanks also to everyone else for their advice.
I fitted the wheels this morning and I am very pleased with the result.
