Might be worth checking with Al Cope - I'm sure I remember him saying to me they were the same wheels and tyres so there was some commonality between the tyre ranges as part of the load rating debate.... Cheers

deffo same wheels!
as said, it's generally the RRS tyre loading that's not up to the D3's requirement. Blessed are the cracked, for they shall let in the light.

Sorry Ken, must have missed an earlier thread  ....
What size are the BFG tyres you are getting? If you are annoying me, just remember it takes 42 muscles for me to frown and only 4 to extend my middle finger, and I'm lazy so don't be offended.

When I checked a while back, on 17" rims, D3 and RRS are the same wheel and tyre (235/70x17), with the same wieght rating.

(and 19" RRS alloys, satnav & DVD)
