I quite like the 18 inch Boost replicas in black but I am unsure whether the load weighting is enough at 1050kg?? Embarassed http://www.4x4tyres.co.uk/defender-15inch-...-2999.html

I dont recall standard LR Boosts being rated any higher than that last time I looked at my spare on my 110xs.
I found a pdf from silverline saying that Blindo where going to release an 18" wheel called the raptor http://www.silverlinewheels-tyres.com/down...arch12.pdf
anyone heard if this is still happening or seen any pics? 2023 110 P400e

JSG - Those black boosts look brilliant and would certainly be the most cost effective option! Did you spray them or buy them black?


I had a set powder coated. I like the look of them and as they are original fitment there are no issues with warranty etc.

I will fit 265 tyres at some point to fill the arches out a bit. John

Black wheels are the way forward!

I actually have a set of these in gloss black... stronger than Blindo's!

But not fitted to anything yet.

Genuine SVX wheels look good in black as well

As do 18" ZU alloys.

Hey Ian. How did you get the 18" ZUs to fit? Do you need an adapter ring or spacers?

Looking at how wide the arches are and the look of the stud pattern I'd say that has adapters fitted

SVX to Manta's
I have just changed from SVX dual finish with 235/85/16 with spacers fitted to Manta 285/50/20 on LTZ Cooper Zeon - no spacers need. It is lowered by 2.5inch at the rear on 1.5inch on the front. I was a nervous about the ride and expect i would need to upgrade the set up but I have been very pleased with the ride and more than happy with the final look.
