18 steel wheel conversion quote?
I got a quote from my dealer at about 8k (parts and labor) to do the brake conversion, 5 OEM white steel wheels, 5 Falken Wildpeak at/4. On my 2020 P400 110
it was about 3k higher than what I expected but wanted the check with this group on whether that was reasonable.

Whew!
Your expectations are spot-on with my experience in Atlanta.
I paid $1750 for 5 OEM steelies (black, off the Trek Edition trucks) from Lucky 8.
The two calipers were $1000 new from the dealer.
$1603 for 5 tires, installed by Discount Tire Cooper Discover RT 255/75-18 (or is it 255/70? Whatever the stock tire size in 18 is)
$280 (2 hours) labor for the mechanical caliper changeout. From The Shop, a local Land Rover exclusive shop.
$140 (1 hour) labor for the reprogramming the computer to accept the caliper change. From The Shop.
$4773 Total.This was in spring of 2022. Inflation adjusted that's $5185 today.

You could save yourself about $4000
5 18 alloy wheels that will fit without spacers $1800. (There are many options)
5 tires of your choosing $1800
an angle grinder and flpppy disc set $150
An hour or so of your time to trim the brakes $0
~$4000
the OEM steelies will require spacers at additional cost to be factored in and may still need a little trimming. Again more potential labor costs.
