Hi! New here, thanks for the welcome. Just bought a 2013 LR4 HSE with 85k miles on it. Excited to get it dialed in!
I'm not very well versed in tires and wheel sizes so I thought maybe someone here could help me. I'm hoping to put these 20" defender 5098 wheels on my rig. Anyone know if they will fit? I'm uploading the tire fit guide a tried. Also, I'd prefer not to use spacers if I don't have to. Talked a few folks, and they are all unanimous that it *might* fit. I'd like to get more confident before I make the purchase!
Thanks in advance!
the specs on the defender wheels are
(5) Land Rover Defender 20" Wheels (5098) and Tires
What size tire? Try and get the outside diameter and match that with what others have put on a 19" or 20 " wheel on a LR4 to see if they will fit in standard height.
thanks for the reply! tires are Toyo Open Country ATIII Tires (265/60/r20)

I used Will They Fit .com and compared 275 x 65 x 18 and it says the diameter is 814mm. This is generally the biggest tire that can be fit on 18 inch wheels without cutting any trim for rubbing. The suspension does need to be lifted with lift rods or re-calibrate the suspension.
That website lists the diameter as 826mm with 265 x 60 x 20.
It's a bigger diameter so you would most likely need to do some trimming. If you want to put them on and have no issues I think you need to look for a smaller size tire.
Defender wheels on an LR4?
