LOL!

Alloys on original shot are the O.E. Land Rover Freestyle

Already had the diff guard and to be honest they work just fine, the front pan is the most vulnerable bit so the wraparound type have always been overkill IMHO Andy

Lol...thought you would like that, fair enough, they just seem a bit flimsy to me, looking good mate.

Yeh, I don't actually like the look of the modular rims very much but it was the cheapest way of properly seating the 285/75's. Ideally I'd fit an 8x16 Zu (if they did 'em) or Mach 5 in Anthracite but that would be costly!! Andy
