I think it looks pretty good. Although not my thing at least it doesnt' have too much bling and at least they aren't spinners.

Not very functional for off-roading ...so keep the old rims and tires and put them on when its time to hit the trail!

Thanks for everyones input.

I am also having a set of 18" wheels from the same company being built right now for off road.

wheels are super light weight made from T6061 Aluminum.

my 22" weighs at 28 lbs.

I finally realized this is more of an off road forum. I guess i got to find a forum with Range Rover Sports since those guys are more into the street scene.

My off road wheels should be done in a couple of weeks. New pics then. I am also painting my rubber bumpers and side skirts. Why would they leave those pieces plastic 4?

get cooper STT's for your off-road rims, I use to have them on my lr3

Both those rims look REALLY good, did you design them yourself?

Also consider the Nitto Terra Grapplers. 285/60/18.
I have seen a number of people using them off road with great results.

So why two different styles???
