theres a module that lets you lower the car even more, i believe its made by rinspeed and its $2100...so F that...not sure if it lets you keep the ride height down all the time, then again, you might not want to do that, the ride gets very bumpy at that height. lol

as for reliability, mine has been fine with me..i maintain it well and thank God I haven't had any big probs.

alittle about myself. i work at a freight forwarding company, so if you want to export a car or something, shoot me a pm lol.

thanks again for the comments everyone!

Probably the only SUV I would think about getting, beautiful. Nice choice with the wheels.

What company you work for, if you dont mind me asking. I'm in the biz as well, 8 years now

Best I've seen so far!! Simple and classy, keeps the British high society looks, unlike other Range Rovers which sadly become rappers 'bling bling'.....

DNI Express, we're located in Arlington, VA, literally a minute away from the Pentagon.

And thanks rdml07, thats the exact look I wanted. I'm glad they came out to be satisfying.

One of the best looking Range Rovers I've seen. Love the color and the wheels.

When the suspension is that ride height setting, it isn't particularly comfortable. It feels like you're riding on the bump stops of the suspension, and the car is very bouncy at that position.

Aside from that, OP, very nice choice for wheels, nice and clean, not overdone at all. Good Job!

Hmmm...didn't know that - thanks for sharing

That being said, then, do whatcha gotta do. After a couple days of contemplation - it's still one of the cleanest & well-refined Rovers I've seen.

Clean ride, even cleaner wheels!! Quick question though, is the silver thing under the doors the nerf bar(s)? Pardon my ignorance, but if there is a way you can remove those, I "think" it might make the car a tad bit meaner.

they are side steps, and they're optional on the car and can be removed. but IMO, it looks bad without them on. its one thing im actually very glad i have on mine.

the moldings on the bottom of the door make the steps inaccessible, when you open the doors, you can step on them.

I got them for $2800 shipped with tires.

SSMTL01, I actually traded the CL for the S2K. Unfortunatly, I had a bad experience with the S2K, so I no longer have it. I've got Skunk2 springs and a Berk Test Pipe for an S2K if anyones interested though, hahaha.

I like the drop on the Range. The wheels look plain to me, but some people don't want the bling and I respect that. It still looks real nice. I would of liked to see some nice rims like that but maybe with a deep lip.

If a Range Rover has the vents on the front quarter panels, it is supercharged...and pretty quick.
