Wheels best suited to 8l's?

[Jordan1.8t]

Hi guys... Im in the market for some more wheels for the a3 havent decided between 17's,18's or 19's yet though.

I do like to do abit of hard driving from time to time...

Whats wheels do you personally think suit 8l's best?

Post picturea up.. I need inspiration lol. Ive had lm reps, bbs rs2's, porsche splits.

I want to buy a set of wheels and actually be happy with them. So i can get on with other mods!

 

[Dane]

Have you been through the pics thread yet mate?

 

[ja3mie]

ooo you selling a set then? im after new wheels and like all the ones you listed lol

 

[Dane]

um which ones did I list mate I've lost you,

theres loads of different 8L's on loads of different rims in the pics thread might help you make up your mind was what I was thinking.

 

[ja3mie]

i meant te OP mate

"I need inspiration lol. Ive had lm reps, bbs rs2's, porsche splits."

 

[Dane]

thats why I was lost your some one completely different.

Apologies mate

 

[ja3mie]

lol no worrys! last night before i went to bed (i was super tired) i thought about putting a post about boost controllers...

fell asleep, woke up this morning... come on here..

sweet! someone replied to my thread.. so i then replied to them..

thought hang on.. im not the OP...

i never posted it in the end, someone else done the same thing lol

people must think im going mad having my own little conversation haha

almost the same! lol

 

[Jordan1.8t]

Not selling any guys... All gone! I want a set of wheels thats good for handling... Preferably lightish! And can fit over my porsche brakes

 

[Dane]

I was looking at Team dynamics 1.2s and speedline turinis for lightweight stuff

 

[mk1chopper]

Dont know about weight but personnely I think the avus wheels, fat fives (RS6?), RS4/RSTT suit the 8L A3/S3 better than most, not a hugh fan of bbs lm/rs on the 8L A3/S3. What size discs do you run? leon brembos (323) fit under 17's, although spacers are sometimes required to clean the face of the caliper.

 

[Mings]

Mmmmmmmmm. Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2s!!! Delicious alloy flavour!

I had a set of 18" RS6 reps... so heavy. Nasty unsprung weight!

 

[Dane]

17 inch avus are fine for brembos but Rstt's need spacing

 

[N8]

1.2s are good lightweight wheels.

 

[s3dave]

Team dynamics or O.Zs

 

[jojo]

MTMs, it's all about the bling!

 

[sportstractor]

18" s4 avus's for the ultimate look

excuse my miscoloured door trim

 

[Jordan1.8t]

Shame s4's are so hard to find ive found a set of 19" new style rs4's.

Anyone got rs4's on theres?

Super legs are nice. I had them 8 years ago on my Renault 5 GT Turbo. Trooper has bronze super legs on his S3 and they look good.

MTMs are also very nice, Jojo is selling his.

 

[Mings]

I like the Porsche style alloys Jo Jo has. Some of my favourites I think, I tried finding a set but came up blank!

Porka Turbpo Twists, very nice.

 

[damo.h]

My list would be:-

Bimoto's
Bbs ch
S4 avus
Bbs rc's
Rstt's
S3 avus

All the above look right IMO.

I friend of mine manage to source 2 sets in 19", let me ask him if he still has one set for sale when I see him.

 

[damo.h]

Jojo did you manage to get 5x100 or do you run adapters??

ive got 18" black superleggere,s on mine.... very light wheels

 

[S3MMA]

Standard Avus either S4 or S3

 

[SunnyB]

I gotta say I usually prefer the oem look. Saw some VMR v710s rims on a S3 8L at Storm Development near Reading, looked really good but think the style might suit the 8Ps a little bit more.

Looking at a new set for myself without blowing **** loads of cash. Currently got some 18" rs8 rep. Was thing about the scirocco reps, def not going for polished finish on rims any more.

 

[jojo]

5x100s

i wasn't even looking for a set when i came across them. Must point out that mine are reps and westys are genuines with hub adapters... although i hear reps are alot rarer

I thought you had ultraleggeras not super? Ultras are the ultimate for me, very motorsport and not oe at all.
