2007 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Manual Zermatt Silver

very nice, are they 19" or 20" ?

Have you gone up in size from your previous wheels ?

I changed my 18" to 19" and it may be imagination, but car seems a bit more 'thumpy' over uneven roads with holes, to be expected due to less tyre I guess. 2017 SEAT Ateca 4drive 2.0 xcellence (May 2022 -

I previously had 17’s SE wheels that had peeled badly
Just done 200 miles on them dropping my boys home and there is a definite difference over the bumpy roads around here but not enough to complain about.
I think I got a bargain as they are take offs so brand new scorpion verde tyres for £400. MY06 FL1 TD4 2 door red (gone)

2008 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Auto Firenze Red

Nice look and bargain price, these are the style I’m after too. Was it an eBay jobby?

I ditched my FL2 wheels when I got it and been running on 20" Evoque wheels ever since.
The Evoque wheels have a different et to FL2 wheels, which means they sit slightly 'prouder'
Never had a 'ride' issue with them as I run with a slightly higher sidewall.
The tyres are also wider, so that gives me quite a big 'cushion' of comfy air.

FL2 now gone and have a couple of items left for sale:-

I fitted the 19s when I had mine, still see it every now and then at my dealers getting serviced, I always keep an eye open to if it comes up for sale.

Yep, like them too, a bit of a change from the usual 5 spoke look [with all it's various patterns]
