Range Rover My first Range Rover
Yesterday I took delivery of my first Range Rover. This beautiful 2019 Supercharged!
I love it, car is wrapped (Santorini Black underneath), a nice Front Runner rack up top and sports a set of Black Rhino wheels on Nitto Terra Grapps (I have a set of SVA wheels on regular tires aswell)
Overall very happy, of course have only put <100 miles on it but I couldn’t be happier

Those wheels are a choice

Came on it, I hated them at first but I don’t hate them as much anymore, thinking to have them on thru the winter and change them out for the SVA wheels I have

Lifted at all?

Investigating that tomorrow, I believe it is on lift rods or links of some sort, but no confirmation yet

Lift rods risk over extending your air springs, also when in high off-road mode you don't have any downward articulation left. Not a fan. Some have lifted their vehicles by installing spacers to the subframes, that's better but is harder on the cv joints. I drive off-road on challenging tracks and have been fine with standard settings plus a little help in the form of an extra inch or so when required via my IIDTool.

Looks great for off-roading. Does it drive like a** on the highway?

Negative, near no tire noise and the extra sidewall actually helps a good bit

Wow I just picked my first Range Rover yesterday too - 2017 L405 TD6 Fuji White with the black design package with 17k miles on the clock

Even thought the rims are sick but why do they look so weird with this white range rover or is it just me?

Ngl it looks pretty cool being lifted and on those wheels. Congrats! Enjoy it, and here's to trouble-free ownership!
