Will 18" RS6 wheels fit on my Leon ok?

[sambryant]

I'm running reps and there are hundreds of pot holes around and iv had no problem. Wheels still look brand new, in fact I found the quality to be spot on

Why are replicas cheaper?

Cheap wheels is always a concern for me, as it's a critical component, it's not something I like to scrimp on....

Good point!

I had 18 inch RS6 reps on my golf for a while. Had to get rid as they were really heavy compared to most other wheels.

Changed for some oz superleggeras in 19s. Couldn't believe how ridiculously light they were in comparison!

The reps do look nice but I can't understand modding a car to make it faster and then attaching some weights to it to slow it down!

I just think why not scour eBay, pick up a proper set, refurb in the colour you want and fit decent tyres

Will only work out a little more expensive and then you have a genuine Audi stamped wheels, lighter, better quality, custom colour and they ain't a rep

The originals are 5x112 though aren't they?

Was just about to say the same thing, people buy the reps because Audi didn't make them to fit the mk1 vehicles.

 

[sambryant]

not all reps are heavy. my bbs ch reps are lighter than my standard lcr alloys

This is very true, as I have a passat which is 5x112, opps forgot Seats are 5x100, sorry

Why not get a set of genuine VW ones then? Loads of nice ones on fleabay. VW and Audis vary from 5x100 - 5x112 across golfs, TT platforms etc, so it's worth searching for a deal

Ill have a browse, sure ill find something that fits the bill. As for the weight issue, doesnt bother us. We dont race or do track days and only rerally drive 10 miles a day plus a couple trips to Dorset and back for Family holiday, hence im not remapping.
