    20" Range Rover Sport Wheels on LR3 - Any Experience?

    re: RRS wheels you wont get much help on this board, go to http://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/ and check the wheels/tyre forum. Quick answer is: rims are direct fit, but tires will be lower wieght rated, so it would be wise to chaneg the tires. good luck mbc
