20" Stormers
OK, I have decided to get some 20" Stormers for road use and keep the current wheels for off road.
I dont want to end up buying ones that don't fit so anyone on here who has got some could you please let me know what you paid and where you got them. I want them complete with tyres.
I have seen some on ebay but there are loads and i am a bit
ThanksGlobal Warming.... I'm luvvin it

No worries mate, I'm just investigating wheel offsets....so don't rush down and buy them just yet
Silver have et53, black have et40. Just need to know if they'll be ok with 295's.
Will let you know soon as "the boys" have got back to meWelcome "Lola"

Righto...sticking to the standard stormers now...turns out that Devon is confidant the diamonds will fit, even though the offset is slightly smaller, the rims are slightly narrower which leaves clearance.
After all that, SWMBO decided she doesn't approve of the "stealth" look.....flipping woman.
Cheers to Al and Ron. Will post some pics as I'm also having the D3 detailed on Tuesday so should be looking raaaaaaaaaaaather good Welcome "Lola"

I notice not much discussion on the load rating of tyres with the 20" Stormers. let me know which tyres you chose please? I am keen on this in the future when tyre replacement comes up. '05 D3 HSE V8, Zambezi

Quite a few 295/45x20's (e.g: General Grabbers) have a load rating of 114, which is fine for the D3, its 275/45x20's that seem to be rated at 110, which is "sort of" OK (for the UK, 111 is recomended as lowest, whereas in Oz, 109 is listed as lowest, for the same car)
Your call, but I'd rather stick with 114's
