Wheels for winter tires - Landmilch - 15-08-2011 07:55pm
I have to look for a second set of aluminium rims for my winter tires. I want to mount 18" rims. My dealer give me the following list. Now I know the tires but not which rims I have to use.
7,0 x 17 ET45 with tires 225/65 R17
8,0 x 18 ET45 with tires 235/60 R18
8,0 x 19 ET45 with tires 235/55 R19
8,0 x 20 ET45 with tires 245/45 R20
Did anyone knows which rims I have to use. Number of screws, diameter, max loading.
Greetings

Suggest you take a look over on the Freelander2 forum at http://www.freel2.com as Evoque has Freelander2 hubs. But I cannot help you with ratings etc
I have posted this tech section from the UK handbook which might be of some use to you http://www.disco3.co.uk/gallery/albums/userpics/10206/en_GB-4.pdf

Thanks for your quick reply. But this manual did not tell me anything about the rims. I am not sure if the tires of the Freelander 2 can be mounted on the Evoque. I need a authoritative statement, because I have to prepare me for the winter. My car will be delivered in winter and I need to use it immediately.
Maybe somebody from LR can can confirm your conclusion.
Freelander II have 5/108 with 950kg max. load
Did the Evoque have the same size?

Are the freelander wheels the same offset ?

7 x 17 ET 45 ist die Felgengröße. 225/65 R17 sind die Reifen.
Den Rest sollte der Reifenhändler wissen.
The first digits are the rims, the second are the tyres. The tyredealer should know the details

Christrian,
I am using the winter tyres on the 17" FL2 rims from my old FL2. Also note on your signature block that your car build date is Oct 28th and you have a TD4. Is this confirmed as LR UK are still telling me that TD4/ED4 production doesn't start until 28/11?

Sorry for my late answer, yes, my dealer confirmed...
