Very brave, or stupid imo, they look just like those multispoke fox rims.

I think your mad to be honest mate, they are just standard multispoke rims, nothing special. To put it into persepective my BBS RW's a la Polo Dune were Â£400.

they are not just any multispokes though, they are the oz racing ones off the cup car

i personally think they look great

Jeff please look elsewhere for them. Like call elitedirect and see if they can get them for you cheaper.

Most places will, they may even be Ronal.

i doubt elite direct will be able to supply a genuine vw/oz wheel though eh

had a look and they are not there, only replicas, and i dont do cheap copies of any wheels

Their website isn't comprehensive at all. Thats why i suggested "call" them.

I've bought five 19" super t's last year from them and they also supplied a genuine mk4 golf r32 wheel in silver chrome (rare shade). Therefore they certainly do Oz's, and in fact they have got hold of every wheel or tyre in the land I've ever asked for.

If i may suggest, spend that type of money on a proper set of wheels like car line cm6 or image wheels.

Its your money, spend it where ever you want to. I only meant to point you somewhere that could save you some money.

I love these wheels ( these are 18s tho but sure u can get 17" somewhere)

i was gunna get them , look like r32 wheels in the pic of the wheel on its own, just get replicas , will save you money and who will know or even care if they are not genuine??

I suppose its up to you its your money your wastin!

Jeff GTi · Post by **Jeff GTi** » Thu Jun 12, 2008 12:02 pm

i would know, and i care, reps are just not the same quality as genuine items, i have always been particular about buying quality genuine parts, and so have done, phoned martin up at vagparts and have got them at a great price, so should have them next week some time

as for looking like the oz's off the r32, well they are, they are both called ariosto wheels, r32's are 18's polo cup's are 17, but same design

need to decide on some new treads now too, got a few lined up, as pending payment, rich T has bought my comps

im thinking between the following

dunlop sp sport 9000 (dont rate the sp sport maxx)
bridgestone potenza re050's
toyo proxes t1r
conti sport contact 3's
