what do you guys think of these wheels.


18x8 fronts, and 18x10,10.5? out back. Its going on an 03 DSG GT.Car is stock apearace for now but will recieve a 6" cowl hood, saleen wing, and possibly some cobra rocker panels. H&R springs will replace the eibachs currently on it.

here is a pic of the car just before I bought it a few days ago. and a pic of the wheels on ROH's website.

im trying to pick something that few people have. fr500's, bullitts, etc are played out

don't see that wheel any...and i think it would actually look pretty sweet on your car...especially with it being lowered..

Those are badass wheels, they remind me of deep dish Cobra R's.

thanks for the quick reply guys.

I am having trouble contacting them. Email won't work and I quess I can't do international calls on my cell. Ill try my house phone tonight. Im trying to contact them to see a price as I didn't see it listed on their site. Hopefully they are under $1K.

anyone ever ordered stuff from them? How long did it take to get your wheels?

do you guys think a 18x10.5 will fit in the back. On their order form I have to take a bunch of measurements for them. So hopefully they can tell me if it will or if they suggest staying with a 10" wide wheel. If i have to I can buy some of the weight jacker lower arms and adjust it to the proper height if I need to.

thanks.

i think the 18's might have fitment issues with the quad shocks, and possibly exhaust. i know a few guys have had some rubbing issues and others haven't had any issues...

They look kinda rice ish...

But they would definately be different!

The 18x10's will fit fine. just go with a 295/35/18.

I believa any wider and you will have to roll the fenders.

Nope... you can fit a 325 18" tall on there w/o rolling.... if you're lowered, you're going to rub on bumps... but thats it.
I have a buddy with 345/30/18 but he had to roll his fenders

well just went out and noticed it leaned toward the driver side rear. then found out it had the eibach drag launch kit. so I made sure the bag had no air in it and nothing changed. the h&r springs will fix the lean. also the drivers rear shock is leaking and needs replaced. I think it just gave up its last straw today cause it wasent like that yesterday. toxico d-spec shocks/struts will be on the way soon. while I was under there I noticed a blue large diameter sway bar. so thats good. the front one is stock.

anyways. here are a couple pics of the car. I am embarrassed to show these cause of the way it sits.

I like the style, but i think the rivets ruin the wheel.
