Hi all
Thought I would share a few pics of my new 2 piece forged rims (hidden hardware so you cant see the bolts holding the face of the wheel). They measure 10.5 * 21 all round, however the rear has more concave to give the effect of a staggered set up. They were made and shipped by my mate who owns

Just needs a small drop then a remap
Going to be ordering the springs next week. I have the Audi sports exhaust from the factory but I am tempted by the Miltek
Thanks for looking

OK, like the shape, don't dig the colour.

I like it, colour suits the car. In my humble opinion.

Nice.
What offset are they? And how did you know they would clear the calipers before your mate made them?

He sent me a template of where I needed to measure so that he knew what offset to make them. There are 3 places which you need to measure its pretty straight forward.
If I remember correctly the rear offset is 23 and the front is 27 but I can double check

Do you not get stopped for driving around with no number plate? It looks so much better without one.

i think they look very good - like ADV1 copies?
Would be nice to see head on shot to see what offset and stance is like. I appreciate it's to avoid stonechips, but the wheels should really fill those lovely arches from the factory!
