LIGHTWEIGHT Wheels

[El_bigote_AJ]

Thanks for the help. Double checked and found the 5x112 only come in 43 offset. Ended up ordering a set of 18X8.5 Konig Hypergrams in bronze wrapped with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S.

Nice! Your gonna love it, will be night and day going from 19’ Hankooks to 18” PS4s.

I’m running ps4s too and love them soo much

Just got back in town to see the wheels in person, figured I would add a pic to better show the Finishes... will be getting the rubber mounted tomorrow.

Damn, I think those are the best wheels I've seen on a golf. Every time I look at those photos, I see new things that make me like them even more.

Appreciate it! I agree But I’m biased .
I never paid up this much for rims before but thought I’d go for it this time. Worth the price imo. Maybe Bigger brakes a couple years down the road to fill them out even more.

Do you have a link to the pic? I’ve literally only found images of these wheels on a white 350 z and a yellow Subaru Forester.

Those are badass.

If I could find a black mesh wheel with a polished lip at that weight and that price point, I'd be all over it. It seems like the only options are two or three piece wheels.

If it wasn't for kiddies, I'd have a gloss set of these on the VW too.

Yeah, this was the closets thing I could find Not in the 3-4K range for exactly what I wanted : step lip - dark brushed center -polished lips - 9 or 10 spoke. And still better Quality than the heavy 600 dollar cast replicas.

What color is your car? I have to know how bad I'm going to feel if I steal your look.

User @mk7_bk has the very similar colour Hypergrams and posted a pic here: https://www.golfmk7.com/forums/inde...-your-mk7-today.316916/page-1544#post-7446586

Should give you a good idea of what to expect.
Looks amazing

Yeah I know About his, I love how his look on his car. it’s not the same really though... those are gun metal ish with gloss center and gloss lips.

They on... rears need spacers front are maxed due to clearance when aired out, even after modding the bumper/fender mounts.

 

[ggweci]

Wow, looks amazing! I could never run a setup that aggressive, but sure love the look.

I've got RSE16's on 245/40 17 and hit a massive pot hole that I was sure destroyed the wheel. No damage to the wheel. I've come to the conclusion over the years that it's all down to tire pressure, side wall stiffness, and sidewall height, for the most part.
