Default thoughts on rims on a dicso

I was just wanting to here what all of you disco enthusiasts think about me putting 20" Lenso rims on my 96 Disco. Any and all thoughts or criticisms would be a great help.
thanks guys
Nikki

So here comes your ideas biggest critic.
First of all, you couldn't take it off the road with out tearing up the wheels and sidewalls.
20" tires ride like ****, with no side wall and a Rovers suspension isn't going to help much.
They cost too much, don't last long and I would be worried about rubbing in those narrow D1 wheel wells.
That being said why are you considering them?
Mike

That was just the kinda feed back I was wanting to here. I don't go off roading anymore since I sank my last car in a gumbo pit. The reason I am considering them is because I was given a brand new set as a present. I appreciate you actually being a critic and telling me the truth.
Thanks
Nikki
