My winters are 275/55r20 compared to the stock 275/45r22. There’s a 0.17” difference in overall diameter between the two. I don’t notice a thing, and wouldn’t expect to. I used to have a truck with 32” for winter and 33” for summer and I think I worked out that on the 33”, I was going about 2% faster than what the speedo would show. Other than knowing that fact, I wasn’t able to notice I was actually going faster. I didn’t feel that was even worth adjusting my driving for whatever speed limit I was in

How much to powder coat? I wanted the black 5-spoke but didn’t want 22”s. This is exactly what I’m looking for.

I bought these already powder coated on ebay - I think I paid $1750 for a set of five.

For reference, my local detailer said he could powder coat to gloss black for $100 per wheel though.

Here is the seller: https://www.factorywheelrepublic.net...rs=product_cat[76]

Looks like I got a really good deal on mine given they are now $3195 - but still a good deal I think.

Hey! I have a P400 SE, came with the 20" wheels. Also have a 2 inch proud rhino lift on it. I really like the 22", and i was told all the defender's have the same bolt pattern and stuff that i can put the 22" on my SE. I bought 285/45/R22 ridge grapplers and the 22" inch tires, took them to 3 different tire shops to mount and balance, and before they even put the tires on the wheels, they tested the wheel fitment, and they all said they wont fit. Any ideas?

Hey! I know you have a v8 defender and it came with the 22" wheels but wondering if you would happen to know this:
So I have a P400 SE, came with the 20" wheels. Also have a 2 inch proud rhino lift.

Do you know what's going on? Do i need spacers or something?
