Think the ones on the Golf are copies of the BBS LM design rather than actual BBS LM's.

Centre bit is different.

....Looks exactly like yours did except different alloys - I think I prefer your BBS alloys. I still think yours was the best GTI I've ever seen and you have not done one better since!
Title: Re: What wheel's are these anyone !
Post by: john_o on 06 August 2008, 15:06
its a photoshop guys I'm afraid , but the wheels are real Morr forged alloys.
I posted a while back but I think it may have been lost in the forum crash  :cry:
Check out the thread on golfmkv.com under R32 section,
from there Davefish is just waiting on a previous BMW group buy to finish before they build some Mk5 offset ones  :evil:.
Various finishes available and very light.
I doubt with the R32 offset they will have as much of a pronounced 'dish effect' either.

There are other CSL style wheels available but they tend to be heavier than OEM so just for looks!

Are you saying that the wheels on the white ED30 is a photoshop? That is the best photoshop I have ever seen lol

Hi DaveFish!

Just read the thread through and wondered if you'd had any luck with these wheels? They are awsome and I'd certainly be interested.

Hehe good. I thought it was really harsh. Both Vortex and GolfMkV pulled my initial GB Feeler threads which had a lot of response. Thankfully I managed to collect the usernames of interested people before they went.

what happened to the group buy on r32oc.com dave did no one want these?
They have no vision or taste lol. Unlike the GTI crowd ;-)

-----------------

At the moment Morr are in the process of shipping wheels out to the BMW owners. They've had big delays but I've been told it will be a lot slicker next time around (first run of VS8 design). They're going to back to me once the dust has settled but basically, I've been told that if I can get 10 deposits they'll make them in 5x112 and ET50 (or whatever fits perfectly). Judging from the reaction on Vortex and GolfMKV I'll breeze 10 but you never know.

They're going to become a sponsor on GolfMKV and post up a GB thread soon. Should be up within 2-3 weeks with a bit of luck. My contact just needs to get the final green light from the boss (Carlos) but he doesn't think there will be an issue.

Cheers
Dave

Ps. Thanks Rob.

....Yes they look fabulouso but I prefer to keep my Monza II's and powdercoat them. Those wheels aren't diamond-cut and lacqueured I hope! Can't quite see in the pic.

They'd be perfect on a Mk5 R32 - Much better than the stock alloys imo.

I do like these rims but I'm with RR here - I love my Monza II's better. Iconic design for the Mk V - can't see me ever changing them :cool:

Update:

All wheels are now shipped in the BMW GB The final finish (Signature Silver) is complete and it looks AMAZING! A brushed face with Sparkle Silver sides (see pics below). I am going to catch up with Morr and see if I can get things moving now. I want these wheels so bad!

the last set was about £200 with tyres removed and new ones fitted, it depends a little on the colour and finish you choose too

Good luck finding it though there is about 50 pages of candy white.  :shocked:
