Default Wheel size fitment

Hi Guys, Is there a website, post or chart somewhere that details which Land Rover wheels are direct fits for our D5s? For that matter, are all d5s 2017-22 the same?

I'd like to pick up a used set for winter but would hate to mess up. I thought I knew the offset but now just read that it's different depending on the wheel diam. 19"-22". For that matter, I've read any RRS wheels fit, but is that for any size wheel or model year? When I look up a standard RR, other than a few mm offset difference they seem fine yet people I've spoken to say they won't fit?

I've also read that LR3-4 wheels won't fit yet I see ads for RRS wheels that state they fit LR3-4s

must admit I'm more than a bit confused.

thanks

This should help. Generally speaking, I believe it's RR or RRS wheels from '15 and newer that fit.

Thanks, I've seen that chart for the D5 fitting.
So I look up the similar chart of another truck to see where the numbers overlap?

another place where I get a bit confused is if you look at the line immediately above the one highlighted in yellow, it's got the exact same wheel & tire size but shows a different offset. 39vs45
Am I to understand that the offset is a range and I just have to stay close?
They all seem quite close but not all fit? am I over-stressing the offset? where are the major differences
( aside from bolt pattern and hub )?

Does anyone know if the 20s from a 2011 RRS will fit?

To find out if wheels fit just ensure the bolt patterns match and then verify that the wheels your considering fit within the same space that the largest factory wheels and tires would fit, for a Disco that's the 22 inch wheel option.

If you use the wheel offset calculator at Tiresize.com Wheel Offset Calculator (tiresize.com) it will show you how wheel offset (and tire and wheel size) affects where your wheel sits within the wheel well. The other issue with offset is that an offset that's too extreme may cause your brake callipers to rub on your wheels. Stay within the confines of the largest available factory offset for your vehicle and you won't have any rubbing on the callipers.

The reason why 2 different offsets are listed for the Disco wheels is because there were 2 different 20 inch wheel options available, each had a different wheel offset. I've tried to find which is which regarding the offsets but haven't found it anywhere. I've wondered if these different offsets may explain why some Disco owners with oversize tires on 20 inch wheels have no rubbing while others with same tires complain that they have rubbing.

Hi there - I'll be taking delivery shortly of a CPO 2018 Disco with stock 20" wheels/tires which i plan to immediately swap with 21" in case you or anyone is interested in them.

Default Will 2011 RRS Wheels Fit on D5

2011 Range Rover Sport wheel and tire sizes will fit within the wheel wells and the bolt patterns are the same BUT unless someone can report that they do fit I would not recommend without first doing a test fit. I’d be concerned about brake parts rubbing on the inside of the wheels. I would feel confident If the wheels were from a 2014 or newer Range Rover Sport but not the years previous.

This is because part way through 2013 a new Range Rover Sport (the L494) was introduced. That version of the Range Rover Sport shares the same platform (the D7U) as 2017 to 2022 Discoveries and all newer Range Rover Sports. The shared platforms mean that many components such as the brakes are shared between these different vehicles. I’ve also seen in forum discussions that Discovery owners have reported successfully using 2017 or 2018 Range Rover Sport wheels. Wheels that were built to fit the previous (built before 2013) platform may fit but there’s a real risk they won’t.
