  • New Wheels - Oettinger RZ

    Santa came today...



    18x8's ET35 to drop onto a Mk6 Golf Cabriolet... that should work out ok... right

    From everything I read I might just need to roll the guards... and maybe run 225/40R18's...

    watch this space

    If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

                  After a test fit today it looks like these are just going to take too much work to get them to fit well to my car.

                  For those wondering, they are the Oettinger RZ wheels:

                    I thought the cab would have been 5x112? aren't these 5x100?

                      They were for the cabriolet which is 5x112

                      And yep, these are 5x112

                          UPDATE!!

                          After a bit of a long journey these wheels are *almost* ready for daily running!

                          I got them back yesterday from a local wheel repair place who have milled them nicely for me from ET35 so they are now more like ET43. They have also had 225/40R18's fitted, balanced nicely and are ready to go on. The last missing piece of this puzzle is a set of hub rings, sadly I think after the milling these are going to have to be custom made, but something I will look into in either case.

                          For the moment I have just test fitted a couple of wheels to make sure all the clearances are good...
                          (and please forgive the bloody filthy car, it's been in some dusty rain this week and I haven't had a chance to give her a bath yet )








                          I'm pretty happy with the way they fit, they definitely fill the guards out much much better than the stock rims:

                            Car needs to be a lot more filthy to match the new wheels

                            Also get some tyre shine

                            Congrats on getting them to fit.

                              Nice!
                              Do recall lots,of the oettingers having space to adjust the offset. Much nicer fitment.
                              Plans to close up that front wheel gap a bit?
