could be wrong steve but I think they have to be 110 rated
Others will know more I'm sure A happy childhood ... is the worst possible preparation for life.

Steve,
The wheels will certainly fit but the tyre load rating is too low it needs to be 111 for the D3. It's a little bit heavier than the RRS.

Tanters did you use the 110's at all? I believe the recommendation is 25% over the maximum weight of the car, 110 is 24% is that a major problem?

not just the weight rating is wrong, but profile too, as those are 50 series, D3 uses 255/55x19
But - in Aus, the D3 minimum tyre rating is 109 - why is that - does gravity affect the D3 weight downunder differently, cant get an answer from LR

Steve,
Talk to Andy at AJS4X4 one of the site sponsors he'll put you right. He told me they were compatible but to get the right load rating. Looks like this needs clarifying.
