Has anyone seen any alloys that look similar to the Sub8 ones in ether 18 or 19". Apparently they are £400 a corner to buy from new!

EBay item 172266586118 is the nearest I can find to the sub 8 wheels but only come in 18's. I'm tempted to buy a single rim as a spare so I can swap with my recently scraped sub 8 rim but at 400 a corner it's a bit steep. I'm sure I read somewhere that sere motors would do a corner for £290
 
£400, sure they were £500. I got one direct from Spain for £300ish

Edit: £515.78 list price for the black ones. £607.18 for orange.

They're not even THAT light, 12kg without tyre. For that price you can get Ultraleggeras.

I have the 18" ones in gloss black they look great but I just think the 19" ones look a lot more classy.

So many better aftermarket choices that these and for the price of 2 of these, you'd get yourself all 4 corners.
 
Agree they are way over priced but my personal opinion is after market wheels portray a certain character and always cheapen the look of a car.

True, true. I see your point, but if you find the right aftermarket for the car, it can look great. Get something nice like Ispiri ISR8's or Enkei RS05RR look really nice. Most people will buy a non-name chinese copy from gumtree and spray them black gloss though.

Agreed that's what I'm after. A decent brand I can replace the badge with the seat Logo which will look similar to the Sub8s for a more reasonable price.

They're not light at all, 5-spoke Cupra rim is lighter than this multispoke.
 
They look great. They don't do 19" but I could get 18s and swap my tires over. If I want bigger brakes I'll have to space them out.
