They are a nice wheel and when I got mine (January) it was the only one my dealer had put out with those wheels all the others had style 3, Style 5 or style 6.

Hi silly question perhaps, but what is the difference between the style 8 polished silver 9 spoke alloy and the 20" 9 spoke polished silver? Are they the same wheel?Was wondering when I saw them on the LR site as well.
Thanks

Yep my favourite too - nice and chunky styling to go with the chunky evoque with the added benefit of the more comfortable 19" tyres and easy to clean too!!

Style 4 19s for me. They were my favourite design, I wanted 19s (not 20s) for the ride quality, and they are easiest to keep clean.

I'm hoping to get a set of 18s from a Freelander this afternoon, to use for winter/offroad. Anybody got any suggestions for tyres for me? Rims are 18 x 8" and I would want a reasonable winter/offroad tread pattern - not too aggressive, but chunkier than a standard road tyre.
Thanks

I'm impressed with the Pirellis that came on my style 4s so far - not sure if they come in the right size for your 18's.

Yes, I got the Pirellis on my 19s, and damn good rubber it is, but I want a higher profile offroad/winter type tyre for my 18s. If Pirelli do a suitable tyre, then so be it, but I've always had good service from Goodyear Wranglers on previous Range Rovers and Defender, so I may see if I can get some of those to fit. I was just wondering if anyone on here had any other ideas fortyres that they had used for winter use - especially on Freelander 2s, as that is what the rims are coming off.

Ant the Pirelli 19" Scorpion Ice and Snow tyres I have I believe are also available in 17" and 18". Pirelli also now sell an All Terrain as well, not sure what sizes they are available in
