Hi All

Iam nearing the end of my search for a FFRR here in South Africa.

Seen a very nice 2002 TD6,looks like its been well cared for but the wheels just don't look right although I think they are Landrover.
Iam too dumb to work out how to post an image so I'll describe them ; They are a five spoke alloys and the spokes have a very rounded profile.The other cars I have looked at have a flat 6 spoke alloy.

Anyone able to help with this.

Thanks

It is a mission impossible without pics but happy to help. There are links on the site with how to add pics etc. Ask RRUK for the link but if i recall it is in the FAQ section

Otherwise on your description, LR do a 5 spoke but it is like saying the wheel is round got 5 spokes and black rubber around it. It could be anything. Try first looking at the tyre size if u cant post an image as it might help a little and then maybe someone could post a few pics of potentials that it might be

Sounds like they could be the 19" RRS sport wheels from the original TDV6 HSE. I had these on a 05 RRS and I do not like them!

Gaz, those wheels were never put on the FFRR, sorry. A similar design did make it in 18" and I had these on the TD6 originally, see below:

There is another set of 18s normally on 2002 SE's that are a single 5 spoke design but i dont have pics

Adam, I actually quite like those 18" on your green RR. These were also fitted to some early RR Sports as OEM...

Vogue the 18s on Adams were never on the RRS as standard but the 19s in Gazellio's pic are 19s and are from the Sport but from a distance look very similar

yes they were, I am off on the hunt for a pic...

they are actually Sport wheels fitted to a FF - the offset is slightly different

I am happy to stand corrected Vogue but the ones on Adams RR are standard facelift 18s for the 2005/6 TD6 Vogue FFRR not the Sport.

Love to see what pics you have of the twin 5 spoke 18s on the Sport as standard spec?!?!

I think what we are talking about is the original 18" alloys.

RRUK, I am aware they were never fitted as standard but are readily available on Ebay and quite a few peeps have fitted them to their FFRR - I have seen quite a few and this could apply to the car above as he has no way of knowing if the wheels are the originals....

Vogue, I am happy to see your pics but in all my time of dealing with LR, i have never seen them on a New UK spec RRSport at an LR dealership but happy to stand corrected. I know overseas cars have other wheels available and many were imported into the UK but not full UK spec. Vogue, Do you have any pics from a UK LR Brochure? i would check offsets etc as normally that style is speced for the FFRR

Full Fat , Hate to barge in on your argument but I think you will find the Original RRS SE was fitted with the wheels above as per Vogues post. THe following pictures are two Range Rover Sport SE's for sale with the Original wheel fitments:





Well spotted Vogue
