Which 20" alloys do you prefer?

I have a spare set of supercharged alloys to go with the standard autobiography wheels. I am about to put a new set of tyres on my 4.4TDV8 (Baltic blue). If I am going to change, this is the obvious moment. I am in two minds. I wondered which the FFRR aficionados preferred:

"Supercharged"


"Autobiography"


I originally bought the S/C wheels because I preferred them but I have found the autobiography ones have grown on me over the last couple of years.

I like both too!

My answer would be the AB Wheels for 4.4TDV8 and the SC Wheels for any Supercharged.

The top Style 11 S/C wheels were also fitted to TDV8's VSE's and Autobiography's straight from LR. There are no hard and fast what is right and wrong as they were all also Options.

The bottom set Autobiography / Westminster wheels would be a nightmare to keep clean 2021 L405 Vogue SE 4.4 V8 DIESEL ~ #17

I have a preference for the Autobiography wheels - I have a set that I use in winter - they have a set of Vreds on them.

I don't find them particularly difficult to clean - the gaps/holes are all quite large and easy to get fingers/sponges in.

I wasn't too sure about them at first but needed some winter wheels and got a good deal - my wife likes them as they look like snowflakes - but they've grown on me in the last few years Thumbs Up

I think it would look better with a set of 19 inch, why don't you get some of them. letters not necessarily in the right order

Dixy,

I've sent a bunch of scallies round to your gaffe to nick yours, so I have that sorted.

(A set of 19" wheels is on its way to me and will have some Cooper Zeons fitted for a bit of offroad action in the shooting season).

Get a " ez detail wheel brush " they are the best for cleaning inside the spokes and inside the rim, then use a flat style brush for the face of the wheel.

Eg - the product not the seller:
