right guys i joined up on golfmkv.com and asked what sizes do RS's/Super RS's come in/ offset and where from ?
only got one good response and that was they come in 17 Rs and 18 Super RS !
It seems they like to keep this kind of info secret, why ? i have no clue, are they bumders ? :rolleyes: Share the wealth of knowledge americans.
Someone said RS and SUper RS are not made anymore.
I need to know how much a set costs and from where i can get them, also the correct sizes.
Cheers guys for the help in advance .

Try Rimstyle (0870 027 8434), they should be able to help you out. Ask for Gary and tell his that Ben from Performance Wheels put you his way, should look after you then!!

The BBS RS wheels were discontinued a 10+ years ago. To find them new in the size and offsett you need maybe hard?
I managed to find a set of new 8x16`s when I was in the BBS factory a few months ago. The right place at the right time I think.
I can supply the Super RS pictured below via BBS Japan however the fitments are very limited.
Ring me for details

The RS wheels were discontinued years ago like the man says (I had a set of RS 17" on my mk 3 golf) but as per the OP the Super-RS are still available in 18" and 19" only.
You can only get them from BBS Japan in a 5 x 114.3 Jap fitment, so you would have to re-drill them 5 x 112 like the yanks are doing. Plus the centre bore is wrong (60mm)
Then there is the cost of the wheels alone (£3k ish) plus shipment from Japan.
