Alloy wheels - Want!

[Khunrichy]

Hello my little RS3 boffins....

Can anyone tell me where I could possibly locate either of these alloys? Ideally the knarly ones on the Gold Audi.

Also pretty new to owning a RS3. (2 days). Is there a regular meet or irregular meet where everyone goes to look at each others RS3 porn? My RS3 knowledge is lacking and I need a mentor to tutor me on the path of building a horrible beast.

Cheers Richy

The first wheels are off of an R8 V10+, readily available if you are prepared to spend the dollar.

The second set look like cheap replicas to me, of wheels that come on the A6/S6/RS6, afraid I can’t help anymore than that.

No regular meets as such from this forum, we attend the larger Audi shows in the summer which you can find about in the events section. Next and only event due at the moment is a dealership meet at Stafford Audi on 27th January.

The second wheels are a design called Atom by a manufacturer called GMPitalia. They come in a variety of finishes and are a high quality RS6 clone. Not to be confused with the cheap unbranded reps found on eBay.

Good knowledge there! Clones are a big no no for me, but I am hearing about a few better quality ones on here.

To me though, they still look like clones.

I'm sorry but those R8 wheels look awful. Too much going on there.

Each to there own.

Actually. Looks like I'm incorrect. The ones in the pic seem like RS6 reps. The Atoms have a slightly different design at the end of the spokes: https://www.gmpitalia.com/en/alloy-wheel-collection/atom

That car is a H&R owned car as far as I'm aware, they would be the best people to contact as they would have provided their own spacers etc to make it work.

Mine are not 20" but it's 19" R8 front wheel all around. No spacers, fits perfect. Same ET as the RS3 saloon. It looks like RS6 wheels but has some other details and is forged.

Thanks! With R8 wheels, I think it looks much more aggressive and the RS3 should have this design wheel from the factory.
