Seriously.

They look like cheap aftermarket wheels,a nd do absolutely nothing for the R when fitted. IMO

The ones i saw a while back were black inside with polished spokes, that looked pretty smart !! But costs a bit to get it done by a refurb company.

They are not a wheel i would add to an R if i am honest, it needs to be OEM for me or something rather special from well respected aftermarket suppliers.

I also personally would avoid at all cost the diamond cut type wheels, they are nothing but trouble in my experience what with white wrom problems and the complexities of getting them repaired etc. .

Very nice :nod:
Only beaten by the Interlagos :D

You should have painted a little more rubber on those rims though - I like to be able to see that its not running on rims only.

Are they 19 or 20"?

Eric,

Those irocs look amazing on your R! Can you tell me where you got them? :D

Also does anyone know if I will be able to fit 19" irocs on my standard 2.0 TSI or do I have to amend the suspension etc?? :eyepop:


Please help,


CpLJ

You can always go up in size - You just fit a thinner tyre to even out the difference.
at 20" You will have to buy a very thin tyre, which is expensive and with no/low ride comfort.

If You go down in size, then at some size there will not be room for the brake caliber (the one biting the brake disc)


The real worry is to find a rim that does not stick out to the side of car, or is too far inside the wheel-well.
