LS Designs LS21 8.5x19 ET45 with 225/35ZR19 and KW coilovers

Chaps, looking on fleabay, seen some Audi 'rotor' lookalikes that fit the Octy at I guess a fair price, I rather like them.

Seem to recall seeing a photo posted on here somewhere of them fitted to an Octy, possibly an early rendition of the 230vRS, anyone know where that image can be found?

Ta everso...

Thank you, it tucks in my skis very nice! No, wait all 4 pairs (at the same time), together with all poles, a small snow showel, and even some shoes.....

[Mence]

Looks good!

Thing is, would black or gunmetal grey suit Meteor Grey better?

Ultimate Dubs 2014 by jonnyguitar, on Flickr

Wheel brand/name: Rotiform DIA forged

Size: no idea (20"?)

ET: Do.

Tyre: Do.

You'd think on air but was on StillStatic's stand at UD14, so could be on coils.

I think you're right, currently having a rethink before final decision time....

I knew I'd seen those wheels before.....

Great pic of the err..train but I gotta say that get Octy is OTT, too much...

[rob_e]

Came across some older pics the other day, this is aknedude's mk3 on Cades Apolo i think? 19s.

Yeah I'm looking for some very minimal matt black 5 spokes to go with the after market tints and black grill suround for this summer 18's or 19's I ain't fussy but, I would welcome some suggestions.

Something like this?

http://www.tyreleader.co.uk/alloy-wheels/diewe/trina-675/8x18-et50-5x112-66-6-261847

 

They are very affordable.  Personally I'd prefer something like this

http://www.tyreleader.co.uk/alloy-wheels/wheelworld/wh11-929/8x18-et45-5x112-66-6-249209

I think pain 5 spoke, in a large wheel, looks... Empty.

How can this thing be driven? Presumably the steering doesn't actually work any more?
