think it looks good for a Bling car & would only look good on Java, but as someone else said, probably a little too far apart in the spacing. Other than that, Bling Bling! Isn't there an emoticon for Bling Bling... ? Bodsys Brake Bible

Hey Baz [snif sniff] how much for a packet of white stuff???
think spacing is better than norm, as standard spacing gives the effect of narrowing the rear end down.
Just think the LR letters would've been more apt.
"dat's my opinion .. you don't ave a problem wiv dat do ya!!!"I was a normal heterosexual chap, but in these new woke awakenings I now identify as a Wardrobe.

As a 'Bling' cruiser it looks great. Not my personal choice though. A bit like putting white sidewall tyres on a Roller, it detracts from the iconic image that the pure vehicle was built with. And you really have to get rid of the spaced lettering, it looks like an MG Rover!
Still think it's a cracking looking motor though disregarding the fact that it's a Landrover.

Oooooffff - dagger in the chest with that one!!!! Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)
Like I said, I wouldn't do it to a Landrover because it's diluted the value of the car as a Landrover - the 'Snob' value if you like. But as a conversion of a vehicle for show it's stunning, especially in the Black.
Is that clearer?

I think it might promote the value of the car (bits of bling)... in a much as it shows another side of the disco3
(this very versatile and unique machine we have)
I know of one person who was shown my car and bought a Discovey as a result .. their first impression of a Discovery
was that of an agricultural machine not a tarmac cruiser ..

275/45/20 Grabber UHP's with load index of 110 (not 111 but good enough)
Ron these are the best tyre i have ever had .. no road noise ... very little ware
after 15k .. and crazy grip in the bends. also that 45/275 ratio gives the same
rolling diameter as the oem 17's
