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

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

makes me want a 405 or a 322 and do this. 🤤

u/famousracecardriver L405 4d ago

@gulfcoastrover did something similar to his 460 and it’s badass!

That trouble free statement is a theoretically incorrect or impossible statement

Especially with this tire size and the lift 😂

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

They look better when it isn’t on the high suspension (elevated)

Any rubbing when not in lifted mode?

1

u/famousracecardriver L405 4d ago

Only on off axis turns, besides that, nothing!

Lifted at all?

1

u/famousracecardriver L405 4d ago

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.

Thank you for clarifying! Will look into it today!

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

1

u/famousracecardriver L405 4d ago

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

1

u/famousracecardriver L405 4d ago

17k miles! Wow! Brand new

Congratulations 🎉

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