Wheel size Italy
Hi,

I am just in the process of importing my Defender to Italy.

I have just received the paperwork to change tyre size on my Defender, so now I can run my winter tyres legally.

I notice on the paperwork under wheel size it says 16” allowable alternative-10%...?

Does this mean I won’t be able to have my 18” wheels certified for the summer? I know that here in Italy they are very strict on wheels and tyres.

Anyone with a defender on italian plates running 18” rims?

Cheers

Jan

Hi Yannis, you must ask Cetoc for a legal paper to certify to italian MOT that defender can install 18' rims. Then when you will have this certificate in hads you must go trough a MOT approval. They will then provide you an updating sticker to apply to your car document. Of course you must pay CETOC and MOT.
Hope this is clear.

Hi Cippo,

The original post is a year old and I believe that Yannis and his partner are now on their way down through Africa. Darren

May be useful for me though, as I'm planning to retire to Sardinia in a few years and taking Landy with me Thumbs Up Tell someone you love them today because life is short.

We are just back from Africa.

We ran out of time to have everything certified before we left.

We now have a huge stack of papers from Cetoc for all the modifications to our vehicle. We just have to book the final test at the Motorizzazione. Which of course is now nearly impossible due CO-19
