Default Question for you who ovned a Range Rover

Hi my Lexus friends. My parents are planning to buy a Range Rover Sport and they want 24"wheels under the ride. The dealer tells them that 24"wheels wont fit. He sais 22 are the biggest. Is this a joke? How big can you put under that car?

You have to raise the car, and then you can add bigger wheels.

As for stock height, I'm not sure...

because of the air ride suspension 22" may be the largest...my friends dad bought a RR HSE a couple years ago and it was the same thing they told him

beisdes 22" on a RR Sport is good enough...just make sure the rite tire size selection is chosen so it looks good

in my opinion, even if 24" fits on the sport, that is going overboard.
