VW Racingline Cup Edition alloy wheels
« on: 22 May 2018, 10:22 »
Hi all
Thought I could live with the Parker alloys, but I can't.
Considering the 18'' VW Racingline Cup Edition alloys, anyone any experience of same.
Local supplier states they are order part and will take 4 -6 weeks but are straight swop for original VW wheels.
Have searched site but cannot find anything on them which surprised me. (That being said I'm and older guy who never can find anything through searches.)
They will be going onto Tornado Red car so visually should be ok.

The 18" are essentially Pro Race 1.2s built to Racingline spec so:

No Team Dynamics on rim
Correct centre bore so no spigots
Satin anthracite finish
You can run stock VW centres

I ran these on a Scirocco back in 2010 when everyone was going for 19" rotiforms.

I would also look at Neuspeed options for 18" wheels as very them

I ran 18 black team dynamics on my car but think the car needs to be lowered to carry them off

£922 a rim! They look really good but I just can’t get over that price.

I got a set of the Team Dynamics 1.2 multispokes in 17" WITH the correct machined centre Bore....just they couldn't do it for the PR3 Five spokes...which I run for winter..

Yes, those are the ones although I am not getting them from Awesomegti, I would order them via a dealership in Glasgow who deals with VW Racingline.
