looking to see what these aicona rims will look like on a 2008 Land Rover LR2

Notes:

stock rim size is 18"
rims in question will be 20"
car will retain stock height
budget ~$3000+ with tires

owner is already somewhat against the idea of black faced wheels.
polished face or silver preferred.

open to other suggestions as i really have no clue
what wheels would look good on this car...

Also comes with a chrome lip instead

I think the 078 looks clean though

If you get these with tires from the states they can be had for about 3k

thanks guys. so i guess the owner was right, doesn't look good on the car lol.

any more suggestions for rims? modifying land rovers is completely out of my realm of knowledge

[turbomelon]

how about some 21'' ml63 replicas

[jpark]

[spoon.ek9]

lol... yeah.. no. anyone else care to chime in? trying to get this done before the weather is too warm for snow tires.

otherwise the owner is just going to buy some 18" all-seasons.

^ what rims are those?

[van_driver]

^ what rims are those?

I believe they are called "Kahn".

I've seen a couple on Range Rovers in Vancouver and they look great on them.

[jpark]

i like those too, almost looks oem on the lr2 and not cheesy aftermarket feeling at all

[dlo]

seeing this is a photoshop thread, any chance someone can photoshop me a photo of atb with a troll face?

thanks, i googled kahn and found the website. i think ones in your photo are the RS-X.

[jpark]

^i think its a little different than the one on the lr2. the one you posted has a slight concaved lip on the outter side... i think it looks better lol

[spoon.ek9]

yeah, i was looking at the spoke design. it's slightly different.

[spoon.ek9]

:troll:

sorry op only did one wheel and its a pretty shitty chop. frnds computer doesnt have photoshop.

[spoon.ek9]

hmm... thanks. i'm not sure if it's the chop or if it's the wheel, but something doesn't seem right about the look.

[insomniac]

you might want rims with narrower spokes
but i also blame my chop haha
those kahn ones look pretty good actually

yeah, the kahn's look pretty damn nice. i wonder if they come in 18's. anyways, tires ordered are 18" so worst case is they'll be slapped onto the shitty oem wheels.

edit, tire rack to the rescue:
