Prefer the stormers, don't think that style suit the box shape of the D3.

Not sure they work Al, but not sure my MY13 HSE wheels are right for the car either.
Need to get your callipers painted and get the Stormers back on.
Did you have those driving lights on when I visited your place?Land Rover - Turning Drivers into Mechanics Since 1948

Robbie - yep, driving lamps been on for 3 years.
I'll give it a few weeks, see if they grow and me. If not, have to get my Stormers refurbed and back on.

AJM - thats partly why I brought them - when I first fitted V spokes, and then Stormers to my old D3, there were not many about (and I always like mine to be a tad different), but now there a quite a few with Stormers fitted.
I knew when I took the Stormers off for the winter, that ideally I could do with getting them refurbed before putting them back on, but these came along, and I'd already got a spare set of new tyres ready to go on, so I thought why not - pretty unique. I'll have to wait and see, as right now, they dont look as "right" as I would like, whereas sitting on the Stomers just looks spot on.
Ah well - watch the for sale section in a few weeks - you never know.
