I catch $hit for my "blingers" every time I go out...even from members of my own club! I think it's funny at this point....but it does motivate me to powdercoat them!

Here is the skinny...search for 18s that fit a BMW X5. I think those will also fit an LR3. My blingers have a $hitload of holes under the centercap-cover (affixed with an allen-head screw) and can fit many patterns; 5x120mm happens to be one of them.

I might! I went to Oregon State University...whose colors are Orange and Black. That's another compelling reason for orange!

I just picked up a set of 18" rims 450 shipped to my door. The euro style 18" I think.

Hmm.... The listed offset is 53mm, the spec offset on the LR3 wheel is 165mm (53P). From what I have heard, you can't put Range Rover wheels on an LR3 without a bit of modification. I've seen it done, I know it can be done, but I think you need to turn them on a lath or something to fit properly over the hub? Not sure. It will be interesting to see how this works out for you!

Nathan, I think you can put wheels from a new Range Rover on an LR3 (meaning L322 to LR2) but the old Mondial or Hurricaine wheels that were fitted on the P38 cannot fit.

Definately RRS wheels will fit. I don't think RRmkIII will fit without minor modification

Nice wheels! Yes, those are off a 2006 RRS SE (Euro spec), a friend of mine has them on his Sport and they look sharp. AFAIK, MY06+ MkIIIs have adopted the same wheel hubs as RRS/LR3, so same bolt pattern, same lugs... But the offset is a little different on their 18s, 57mm (vs 53mm on LR3/RRS.)
