I understand it as both sets will fit but need one can use the D3 wheels nuts and the older set you need to buy some L322 wheels nuts
Aslong as the tures are rated at 111 or above I should be fine
Is that how everyone else understands it???

Think it might be more or something to do with the offset or maybe rim diameter Matt , I'm only guessing as I didnt pay much heed.Al Cope is your man for this stuff hes tried more wheels than hes had fresh underpants.
EDIT Yep Looks like your ok

Guys
just tried these:
and although I'd posted that they wouldnt fit, they do. They need new wheelnuts (the earlier L322 type, slimmer shank, black ones), and as these are usually from a L322 FFRR, they usually have 255/50x20 tyres (OK size wise), but only weight rated at 109, not the 111 needed for D3. I've never seen 255/50's at 111, so you might end up having to use 275/45x20s, which you can get at 114.
hope that helps
Al
Update - there are two versions of this style (and they look the same, just subtle differenece in the casting), a pre and post 2006. For earlier ones, see above, for later ones, they have a larger wheelnut hole, and use the same wheelnuts as RRS, D3 and post 2006 FFRR)

Matt that style (hole) might catch the calipers however the same style with dimples should fit

Sorry guys, just logged on - these do fit, both early and later (pre and post 06), but the earlier ones need the earlier wheel nuts to go with them. They dont rub the calpiers (well they didnt when I tried one on mine, and this was an early one)
As these are 8" wide (not 9.5 as Stomers are), I'd go for 265/50x20, as you can get these weight rated at 111.
