Hey,im going to be coming into some money soon and im going to treat myself to a new set of rims.I would just like a little help on what you think would suit my A3 please dudes.At the moment i have RS6 reps in 18's.So pref i would like to stick with 18's really or maybe 17s??..The wheels im thinking at the mo are Rota,BBS CH OR LM's,Fat fives,Rh Zw1's,Poker cups anything deep dish really.Ive not got a massive budget so reps will be fine.

i think there ok,just need to be bigger and the centre not black

Subject: Re: Which alloys to get??.. Thu Jul 08 2010, 23:03

they are 18ss

Subject: Re: Which alloys to get??.. Thu Jul 08 2010, 23:23

If you go for CHs you've defo gotta be the wider low offset 1s with the concave face, normalsjust look gash in comparison I think. And yeah my eta beta's would be a perfect size for an a3 like yours.

Personally I'd pick something like amg mono splits.

I don't think people are bearing this in mind...

Rep's cost between £350 and £550 usually.
Splits of any kind would have to be pretty rubbish/need a refurb condition to fall under that price.

Subject: Re: Which alloys to get??.. Fri Jul 09 2010, 08:16

Matty can you get the CHs' in that style in reps then dude?.as not got the money for real ones.Gt any pics of the AMG ones to please mate?

Subject: Re: Which alloys to get??.. Fri Jul 09 2010, 09:37

Yes you can m8, there's a guy with a black mk4 with 9s alround. Thy are the good reps with Motorsport cast into them like real CH too. It may take call a few places cuz most just use a generic picture when advertising.

They do the 9 inch wheels might be able to get them as a set of 4 and people rate there reps as being better quality than most of the ones on Ebay.

Subject: Re: Which alloys to get??.. Fri Jul 09 2010, 18:23

Any ideas where eh got them mate?.i have seen sets on ebay which have bigger rears so they could be concave

Subject: Re: Which alloys to get??.. Fri Jul 09 2010, 18:27

Yeah i have looked on that site mate,they seem nice.what about keeping my rims now but just getting them refurbished and better tyres.is 225/40/18 on rear with 215/40/18 on the front the just get a good set of spacers to bring them out to the edge of the arch??...

Subject: Re: Which alloys to get??.. Fri Jul 09 2010, 18:41

if thats what you want m8, theyre not ugly wheels by any means just not overly exciting either. yeah smaller tyres would help to get a nice fitment of them.

Subject: Re: Which alloys to get??.. Fri Jul 09 2010, 18:43

Yeah not to sure at the mo,just thinking of my opitions of what to do.a nice set of rims tho would change the car so much i think tho

I'd rather sell them with the tyres tbh though mate.. You could always sell them afterwards if you bought them.
