20" RR wheels on a 05 LR3 SE - 8/29/2007 10:05:41 AM    Kooner   Posts: 8 Joined: 8/28/2007 Status: offline I was looking at installing 20" x 8.5 Range Rover wheels with 5.75 bolt pattern on my 2005 LR3 SE. Currently, I have the stock 18" wheels with a 120 bolt pattern. Does anyone know if I would be able to fit the 20" rims on my LR3?  Would I need new lug nuts or anything else? I'm not sure if the bolt pattern would work or the offset. Also, what would be the biggest tire I could put on the 20" without it rubbing? Thanks Post #: 1

Give it a real serious thought and try something smaller. _____________________________ Mike Retired service manager.

I wouldn't go over 19 if you are dead set on Low Pro look. I sold my HSE 19" and bought 18's to put on mine. I couldn't have made a better move. _____________________________ 2006 LR3 HSE / Java Black / NCLR Member (in reply to dirtyduk) Post #: 6
