Anyone try Compomotive 18" Wheels Yet PD1880 / PD1881
 

I have the Compomotive 18" wheels (PD1880) on my LR4, interested to see if anyone has tried these wheels on the new Defender. They were specifically designed to allow LR4's to run 18" rims and I'm wondering if they have sufficient clearance. No info on the Compomotive site yet. Thanks!

Next question...anybody know if 19" & 20" LR4 wheels fit the new Defender. I imagine the bolt pattern is the same, but what is the offset on 19" and 20" original equipment Defender wheels?

Having owned an LR3 and now two LR4s with extra sets of winter tires I have accumulated far too many sets of LR4 wheels.

Nope, sorry. They don't fit on a P400. Maybe with extra thick spacers they might, but Lucky 8 tested them first, and ended up not recommending that setup after posting a video that got me excited for a second. Apparently there were problems with the spacers.

I am not crazy about the rear caliper swap (apparently with smaller calipers from a Disco 5) required with the 18" Tuffant wheels, either. Brakes on the P400 are great as they are, downsizing may not be such a great idea. Not to mention potential factory warranty issues down the road.

I think powerfuluk put up something on YouTube about wheel spacing

Hi Umberto, nice to see you here!

I figured out that the offset was different on the 19" wheels...53 on the LR4 and 42 on the Defender. I guess that's why on the Land Rover website you can order an extra set of wheels when you build your Defender. Somehow rolling $3800 of wheels into the total cost isn't as painful as buying the wheels separately.

Did anyone get the Off-road pack and if so what tires did you get? I was speaking with my dealership and they are telling me that I am getting Wrangler Adventure A/T? Seeing if people received the same thing.

Yup, that's what comes with the off-road pack, regardless of rims size - 18, 19 or 20" - you get 5 ea GY Wrangler All Terrain Adventure sized 255/70, 65 or 60, respectively. They are not very aggressive A/Ts, good enough for milder off-road terrains, offering little rolling resistance, a high "H" speed index and very quiet on pavement - I can't hear mine. They are a good compromise between an all-season and all-terrain tire, but I wouldn't take them rock crawling as those sidewalls look quite "tender", and like most A/Ts they are probably not very good in mud or snow (they are M+S rated at least.)

There is a step-up, more aggressive dealer-installed option (GY Wrangler Duratracs - same sizes as the standard off-road tires), but they are quite expensive through a dealer and you may be better off buying them from a regular tire shop. If you have 18 or 20" rims, there are better choices from other tire manufacturers, in my opinion. You should even be able to upsize a little without lifts or rubbing issues. If you have 19", you have no other choices but those two Goodyears currently.

Thank you, looks like I will be buying a separate set of rims and M/T. I live in PacNW where it is muddy 8 months of the year. I'm thinking that during our winter months where our mountains are closed due to snow, I will run the A/T. Then come spring when things open up, I will switch to Maxxis Razr M/T. I have 18" as I have a P300 coming next month. I will probably just keep it at 32 since I will not be getting to crazy on rock ledges.

My dealer here in CO also confirmed my build will be coming with Wrangler Adventure A/T upon delivery in Feb 2021

Anyone have any ideas why the goodyear wrangler AT tires are so much less expensive than other AT name brand tires?... almost 100 dollars cheaper per tire than bfg KO2s and the Nitto grappler stuff. For me it came down to bfg and nitto for my spare offroad wheelset... ended up going USA over Japanese... and I've had great wear and grip with bfg at and mt in the past... the wranglers were off the table due to being so much less expensive... i assume there is a reason but I didn't research the goodyears.
