Brilliant ride!

Just took my 20" wheels off and fitted a set of 2010MY 19" with Michelin tyres. What a transformation the ride is much smoother and i swear it corners better too...load rating on tyres is 111 so I am guessing the side wall is slightly stiffer. Also finding the steering is a lot lighter.

PS If you are wanting to buy my most excellent 20" rims please ignore the above Rolling with laughter

The "Boy Racer" in me wants OF's Laughing Laughing But the old Fart in me says "Originals" and the state of the roads up here says 19"s .......... Laughing ====================================

When I had the TD6 it was originally on 18's the ride was SOOOOOOOOO smooth, you never felt the bumps, but it did roll more. Changing to the 19's was a surprise at how different it was, now on 20's the TDV8 does crash about a bit but they look nicer!

I reckon the best compromise for looks and ride is probably the 19" wheel fitted to the D4 HSE as below because it looks like the 20" FFRR version!

Nice advert Mick!

Why not go retro and against the crowd and put smaller ones on! Find a set of P38 18" alloys that will fit over the brembos Rolling with laughter Discovery 4 HSE
