Thoughts on my 2005 Disco 22" Overfinch Alloys
This is my second disco 3 I've had the pleasure of owning, regretted selling the first one....
I've upgraded the rear light, grill, and refurbed the alloys, and put leather hse seats in the front today, although can't get the electric drivers seat to move yet , refurbed steering wheel coming this week and remap being done soon

Far too fussy for my liking. Must be a pain to keep all the corners clean. Just my opinion though, if you like them that's great. Richard

Not my cup of tea fella but whatever floats your boat. If we all liked the same it would be a bit boring The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
They just make the best of everything they have.

Bloody spell check ! The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;

I would lose the red from the intake and brake calipers. On the wheels,a lass on the school run has them on her disco and they are just a bit too much. But hey what do I know being an ol duffer. Personally I like the look of 20" stormers better.
Enjoy your car as you like it though

You have one of the best production off road vehicles in the world. To me, fitting rims of that size is a bit like having the best divers watch in the world and then spending a lot of money modifying it and making it no longer waterproof in the process.
If you like them though, that's all that matters. it would be a dull old world if we all liked the same things. 2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE
2010 D4 HSE (A bit bling)-GONE
2014 D4 HSE (Almost too bling)-GONE
2015 D4 HSE (A heated what?)-GONE
2016 D4 Landmark (Written Off)-GONE
2016 D4 Landmark (Surely the last!) PD1881 rims-GONE

The 22's look a bit 'drug dealer' with some wheels, I quite like your style though, seem to look better on the black car, maybe because the colour has more depth and shine
