Why don't you ring AJS, one of the site sponsors.
If they're too far, try DGT international, Basildon.
Tel 0870 7000331
RonP and myself both got our wheels from him.
General Grabber UHP are a decent road tyre choice in widths up to 295. You are slightly limited if you want an AT tyre in that size though. Be very careful of rubbing.
Edit...in hindsight, I wouldn't buy stormers now as they're possibly not the best offroad solution, lol, I'd go for black 19/18" HSE's with MTR's from Ken Welcome "Lola"

These guys are in your neck of the woods and guys on here have had wheels from them in the past at very compettitive prices. Might be worth a speculative phone call, you might get lucky I believe that every human has a finite number of heart-beats. I don't intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.

If you want your wheels to break then get the ones.
Mate, don't compromise your vehicles safety with crap stuff, take a deep breath and wait til the correct ones are available.
You'd be pretty heartbroken if you damaged anything, let alone anything was to happen while you had family/friends in the car. It isn't worth it, just for looks.
Keep safe.Welcome "Lola"

Carp
the cr@p ones are rated at 500kg (didnt one of the Irish lads get a set sent to him, which he promptly rejected) - 900kg is OK. Thats what LR rate the all the 20" wheels at. It will be interesting to see what weight rating the new 20's for the D4 are rated at, as initial spec is for 255/50x20 tyres rated at 109, so lower than the 111 spec'd for the UK D3, but the same as spec'd for the Oz D3.
AlVolvo XC90 B5 Plus Dark
Gone - MY18 D5 HSE - Corris on 22's with Black Pack
Now gone - MY16 D4 SE Tech, Loire Blue, Almond Leather, Privacy, plus some other goodies.
Old - MY12 D4 SDV6 XS Auto - Ipanema Sand with Almond Leather - Plus other niceties, and D4.com sticker
Older - D3 TDV6 XS Auto - Lugano Teal with Almond Leather, 20" Stormers, Shiny Tailpipes, DVD/TV - and obligatory D3 sticker
Ancient - D3 TDV6 S - Tonga with Ebony, 20" Stormers, satnav & DVD
