Talladega Reps
« on: 08 September 2010, 12:30 »
Just wondered are the wheels in the link below identical to the Talladegas ?? Also the offset 35 to 45 will that be okay with the the GTI ?

ET35 I doubt will fit - they'll stick out too much. Depends on the rim width.
ET45 will be better.

An 8"x18" ET 45 should be good...whereas I'd bet a ET35 will rub on the outer edge somewhere.

Those don't look like Talladega wheels to me....

I know Gossa was selling his reps a couple of weeks ago, so it may be worth contacting him if your interested. They look very nice on his car imo.

^ +1 - The ones you have there are the Audi RS6/A4/A5 S-line wheels

Will probably look fairly nice though!

They are Scirocco R reps and not Talledega's mate.

The Talledega reps sit out of the front arches only slightly more than the GTI wheels as they are 18x8 and not 18x7.5.
