as per header, well a neighbour was right, i swore i wasnt going to change the wheels but well here i am looking at wheels. on previous cars ive always favoured the VM wheels. but fancy something different (nothing too hard to clean) although im probably going to keep the original wheels and end up using them as winter wheels.

what have you got, dont want anything to heavy, went for reps on my R32 and regretted it straight away.
 
got some 19" 8.5" all around Bola ZZR, for sale aswell, just havent gotten around to listing anywhere yet :happy:

REVO RV019. Made by Rimstock, same design and process as McLaren use. These weigh less than 10KG a corner too, so nice and light and still strong...

I'm in the same boat stuck on what alloys. Was basically the reason behind me getting the stock 18s I fancy the revo but also like XXR 527 or jr 11
 
Set of coilovers now and I'm happy

I'm not usually a fan of aftermarket wheels but they look OUTSTANDING!!!!!!! Excellent job sir!!

EDIT: How are you finding the SC6's? :D
Thank you Squire!
They're excellent Matt, SO grippy. I can't comment on noise as they went on with the upgrade to 19s so I can't really compare fairly. Wet, dry, hot and cold performance is amazing though. As per the old chestnut on here, they wear faster than Michelins but I'm finding not that much - plus as I do low miles, I'm more interested in performance and safety. Get em on!

Sounds good, thank you!
Audi are due to pay for my next set of tyres, I was going down the Pirelli route from SC5.
 
Has anyone ever seen or put these on an 8v A3? I know some people don't like them but I've always admired them on older Audis. I believe they are 18" Ronals, came on S-Line B7 A4, 8P A3 and some others.

Never seen them on an 8V, didn't know they came on the 8P either.

I thought they were just A4 S Line wheels, yes they are nice but horrible in black.
 
I settled for looks.

Lowered on Solowerks coilovers, fender gap is a finger, not looking for tuck or poke.
Ride is plush and controlled.

I wanted to get some Eibach's on mine but have been worried out of it due to the change of it catching. But I had a quote from my only trusted independent and they want £560 for 5 hours labour, yep.. plus the £99 for alignment :lmfao:

I won't take it to just any garage, just asking for trouble to have your usual ham fisted mechanics work on it.
