Advice on 20" rims fitted to my Disco......

Hi all, I have come to the realisation that the 20" rims fitted with 255/55/20 tyres are not the stock (or optional) equipment for my 03 Discovery. They do look awesome but I've been driving around now for 2 weeks since delivery and have had a niggling feeling that they just aren't right. I've been on to a wheel/tyre comparison site and it would appear my set up will give inacurate speedo readings (it quoted 10%).
Has anyone any experience of this issue. Any advice/help will be most appreciated.
Thanks

Keep the Wheels sell the D3 and get a RR sport to fit em on.

Yerp they will alter speedo as rolling radius is different, are you going for the essex gangster look, if so you can limo tind the back ends so nobody can see the mother in law.

Failing that most gps will give speed read out to compare.

Better drive slow over pot-holes, speed bumps, cat`s eyes, etc to avoid damage.... Disco will handle it...but wheels won`t... Sell `em ebay, buy a proper set of wheels and enjoy a few pints on the profits!
