    255/55/R20 ? Can't find this size listed. Or do you have another size ? Standard 20" HSE wheels ?

    Oh ! Not that I would have EVER doubted you Andrew Thumbs Up

    For some reason I couldn't find that size when searching Embarassed I was searching by vehicle type and was only seeing the Eagle F1 Asymmetric tyre. Search by size I find them...

    Speed rating of Q so no autobahn high speed runs then Wink

    Hi,
    I wrote several times to LR Italy and to LR Global Customer Relation for homologated off road tyre and/or rims for the new Discovery (5) and the answer was: "no type of off-road wheels or tires are foreseen for the European market. we're sorry"... Censored
    The only way for off road is to buy tires and rims that are not approved in Europe.

    I should not have replaced my old Discovery 3 Big Cry, I should not have trusted Land Rover.

    At the Land Rover Experience meetings the new Discovery (5) is equated with the Discovery Sport or the Range Rover Evoque, like a normal SUV: they do not allow to ride the same path of Discovery 3/4 because of the tires.

    If you want to off-road in Europe do not buy a new Discovery!! In the USA there are several of homologated tyres for off-road...

    Our 2018 HSE lux has the same brakes as my 2019 SVR. There’s no way a 19” wheel would fit.

    Lucky8 LLC are running 18" wheels with lift rods, but the tire dimensions should work without the lift if you stick to 255/65-18 - the outside diameter is 0.1 in greater than OEM. In 265/65-18 you can get DuraTracs, and the tire OD is still 0.3 in smaller than my 275/55-20 AT's.

    18" rims 265/60 R18

    For off-road I use 18" steel rims with 265/60 r18 pneumatics, see the post:

    The 18"' alloys in the earlier pics look like Compomotives, not LR alloys. I know its these that folks use when fitting 18's to the D4.

    The D5 might run the same size 19's but the offset is different, 47 instead of 53 I think. This means the wheel sits further out, which is possible why you have the issue with D4 wheels catching the caliper.

    Al

    Now gone - D5 HSE 2Ltr in Corris with black roof, black & dynamic packs & 22" black alloys, a bit of a change after 2 D3's and 2 D4's Smile

    I looked for several 18" rims for the D5 and the only ones that can be mounted are the Compomotive (€1500 for 4 alloy rims) without spacers or the TuffAnt (€1100 for 5 steel rims with 30mm spacers): I preferred 5 TuffAnt rims, cheaper.

    The calipers problems are only on the rear axis, and only the D5 Sd4 can mount 18" rims, the D5 V6 mount larger brake discs.

    Yes there is, a 19" wheel is available as standard regardless of engine or spec.

    Of course! My D5 mount 19" rims: but at the moment do not exist off road tyres for 19" rims with omologate dimension for D5 in Europe, in USA yes....
