Cheers Jon, i really like them and they give the d4 a purposeful look and improve the ride at the same time
The Nara one in my pic is pretty much the look i want to achieve but with sliders and possibly a snorkel. But wheels first
Seems to be a common thing with me to change the wheels on every car i buy . This new one of mine has an almost brand new set of continentals so i shouldn't even be looking yet

here you go. I got them to be able to have taller tyres for a long off road expedition, but they are very nice wheels. Worth looking on eBay/gumtree as some come up occasionally..... I didn't pick the colour, but I think it works fine.

Very nice Xcentric , i agree the dark finish suits your car very well. What size tyres are you using and have you got lift rods or standard height?

Xcentric What colour would you have chosen? I'm Baltic blue and was thinking the grey would be best

they are grey (if there are multiple greys, then I've no idea which, sorry, as they were second-hand!).
Tyres are BFGoodrich AT KO2 265/65 R18, no lift rods or permanent software lift. However, on the Pyrenees trip, we did add a 2" lift all round in software so that we could run in 'off road' height when at standard height as so run faster (in off-road height, it would continually lower, and then for a rough bit we'd have to raise it, and that overheated the compressor). And for the very rough bits, we'd use offload setting in addition to the 2" lift.
No rubbing or issues with the tyres, and useful having the 18" wheels - very pleased with them. Was going to revery to the 19"s when back home, but have kept these on. Not any more noticeable road noise or mpg effects either.

Thanks Xcentric , think they look the biz and the fact that you can get BFG Ats in that size is a bonus (got them on my defender and they have done over 20000 miles and still hardly worn!!)
If anyone hears of a set of these wheels please point me in their direction
Will put a wanted ad on here just in case
If i don't manage to get a set 2nd hand i will probably wait until after christmas and get in touch with compomotive and get a set ordered

Just had the Compomotives fitted, ride is a lot smoother but a fair bit of tyre noise (BFG AT 265/65R18) between 40-80, probably need to wear them out evenly first.
