20" RR alloys on a Disco 3?

Why arn't LR offering the 20" alloys as an option on Disco 3?

I already have a set of 20" RR 7 spokes, and am looking at a new Disco 3 TDV6, so can I use them? I dont see why not, as they have the same bolt pattern, offset, etc.

Check the load index, D3 is heavier than RRS so thay might not be up to the job.

I suspect LR don't offer them as the RRS is the bling vehicle in their range Wink The End

Sorry, just noticed you said RR not RRS, are you sure they're the same fitting? I've not heard of anyone fitting RR wheels to a D3 The End

They're off an L322, which I though shared the same hubs as Disco3

Be careful, I had an experience of trying to fit 19 inch RR wheels to the D3 and the offset is insufficient and they foul the caliper. Not sure on the 20 inch wheels but I would expect the same. Disco 3 TDV6HSE Cairns blue auto

Be careful chaps, been down this route before and wheels are a bit of a problem for D3's. Watch the tyre details as well, had that too.
