The Official Mk7 Wheel Thread

[jim251]

Great thread, really.

Dutch, do you have more pics of your own car somewhere? Hi-res, maybe? I have a black R on order and really like those Leggera HLTs you have on there.

Thanks again for runnin' the show on all these wheels.

Perfect. Thanks much. Very nice gallery!

Definitely one of my favourites. Perfect amount of drop for the look, too.

I wanted to do this and you stopped me!

Bookmarked! Great thread

Cheers.

Thanks to Adam for the pic update and his great shots, these wheels would definitely look great on a black R. The fitments are pretty friendly depending on what you're looking for, and this thread supports Euro wheels on Euro cars.

That's a clean Jetta left in view as well.

I said one of my favourites, not necessarily favourite of the favourites. But from some angles they really do look the biz!

If you do end up shifting to a new style at some point, you know I'll be on the first plane up there to take photos, right?

You're killing me here, what do I need to do, get some S3 wheels?

I'd expect nothing less, I'd need official photos for the thread and my phone ain't going to cut it. The new style route has diminished however, think the pennies can be put aside for the next ride.

AUDI RS4 - REVISITED
Specs: 19 x 9.5, ET52, weight tbc









Per the owner:

Ok, here are some RS4 (or TTRS?) rims on my R. They were sold to me as RS4 wheels but there is no real way of knowing. The stuff I am sure of is they are genuine Audi rims that are 19x9.5 +52.

The R is running H&R Springs.

When the car was on the lift the 235 rear tyres were rubbing on the struts, but are fine once it is on the ground. The fronts rub slightly when going over moderate to large bumps and are pretty much flush with the guards. The rears are about to receive some 5mm or 10mm H&R spacers. I will push them out as much as I can get away with.

Rims: Audi RS4 (TTRS?) Forged Alloys
Specs: 9.5x19 ET+52
Tires: Michelin Pilot Super Sport - 235-35-19

me too wish I'd fitted these now btw I've just sold my borbet lw's and I was going to get another set of 19"oz superturisimo lm in graphite again but still thinking about these! My supplier now only sells the 8x19 et45 fitment for vw not the fitment above,which I turned down originally but I'd want the 8.5 width now lol

You can't go wrong with the OZ ST LMs, but yeah for something different in the OZ range these just work for me (obviously).

The 19 x 8 ET45 would still be a great fitment, but if you must have the wheels pushed out then yeah the above is still fine. You need a new supplier, or move here and I can hook you up.

Are you able to legally use spacers in the UK? That might help you, although it should be easy enough to source the x 8.5s.

NEUSPEED RSE10
Specs: 19 x 9, ET40, weight 23.5lbs/10.6kg







The latest addition to Neuspeed's range is the good looking RSE10 which works well with the lines of the Mk7.

These are pretty aggressive for our laws and would need work; fortunately the solution is the 19 x 8.5 ET45 wheel which comes down to 20.5lbs/9.3kg as a bonus.

yes I can use spacers though I'd have to inform insurance,nearly clicked to buy the lm's in graphite again after finally ditching the idea of having them in Matt black I think lol,then you go and put them pics up! Speaking of 19" st lm's Dutch do you know if they weigh in at 25ibs?
