I would of thought that the most important thing about using either, LR wheels or aftermarket wheels, is that they are fitted with good branded tyres, and not these cheap crappy imports that we see advertised..

That is also true cutter, have a look over on the RRS and FFRR forums and you will see several people who have also come close to death when non-OEM wheels have failed at >70mph on the motorway though. Even some of the more respected body shops have had problems with cracking rims and spokes on supposedly quality wheels purely because of the car's weight. I also wouldn't ever buy a wheel off eBay unless the supplier was either a Land Rover agent or a very reputable wheel supplier. These cars are not Honda Civic Type R's that are featherweights
