new alloys

[Gordonmcguinness]

looking to buy a new set of alloys but don't want to go lower than 17inch alloys

so my options are the team dynamics 1.2s or speedline turinis

the thing is the size is 7x17 et35 and tire size is 195/40/17

are this size going round rub my arches

thanks

Unless your RS is slammed like a scallywag, it shouldn't be a problem.

Speedlines or Turinis are the common choice on RS's

More info can be found here:

7x17 ET35 have the face of the wheel flush with the outer edge of the wheel arch. 195/40/17 fits but the rear arches can rub when loaded

Theres loads of 7x17 rims besides Turinis or 1.2s

Compomotive MO1771

Compomotive MO1772

Speedline 2120

Speedline 2113

Speedline 2110 CHALLENGE

Then theres ones from OZ and countless others which may be avaliable with the correct fitment :?
Like these

Speedline 2110 Challenge alloys aren't made anymore, I wanted those originally instead of the Turinis but they couldn't sell me them due to being discontinued and out of stock apparently :/

I like the star-shaped one as well but so far the easiest ones to find are the one from Rota.

I'd want a 16' set as winter wheels (black colored).

decided to go with team dynamics 17s pro race 1.2

yeah mate they are lightweight makes the steering feel a lot more responsive

What's the weight difference with these to normal?

What's the weight difference with these to normal?

from feeling and not actually weighing id say about 1.5 to 2kg a wheel

17x7 pro race 1.2s weigh 7.9kg each according to their site.
