Advice on Alloys – not keen on the Forged wheels

[b1rdy]

Been looking on-line for days and days (it seems) as I’m trying to find as close to the Mk2 RS alloys. Best match so far is OZ Supertourismo. I know this topic might baffle members but im just not that keen on the Forged alloys but preferred the standard mk2 alloy to the multi spoke mk3 version. Anyway, I’ve read that the MK2 is ET45 offset and the mk3 is ET50. I’ve a set of 12.5mm spacers to fit this weekend to fill the arches a bit neater. So, in a nutshell, is anyone aware of a MK2 style/replica but I can get in the 19″ mk3 ET50 offset? Thanks guys

Yes they do look nice. I looked the other day at the Revo ones but they are quite similar to the Forged ones though so don’t think the wife would like it if I say I don’t like the Forged then but some very similar. To be honest though, she’d probably not even bloody notice!

This the wheels you want to match?

[b1rdy]

Yeah, love them on the mk2’s but think I read on here they won’t fit the mk3?

Actually, think I like them evo ones! There very similar to the mountune ones and a similar weight (<10kg). Might order them payday and sell my forged ones to help fund them.

I am currently trying to get discounts on Revo gear so will let you know if I manage it.

That sounds great Kenny! Hope you manage to sort it with them. It’s in their interest really as you’ve a great Forum here and I’m sure they’d get tonnes of customers via it ??

Cheers Kenny. I love it how in picture 15 there’s someone looking at the car out the house window! Like the wheels. Wonder if he’s got 20mm spacers though or a different offset alloy as they’re certainly wide

Those Mk2 alloys are a sod to clean, I enjoy cleaning my cars but hated cleaning those Mk2 alloys. The forged ones are a lot easier to live with and clean.
