Re: So u think u can Volk ME?

Beautiful rims. I only found out that these rims fit the E60 also after I bought my RS-GTs. The guy at Stamford weighed the damn thing for me; only 9.5Kg ea. RS-GT 19s weigh 10.2Kg ea.

Been trying to influence the E60 drivers that these are the rims to go for. Stamford sells them for about SGD 1400.00 less 15%

Re: So u think u can Volk ME?

How much did you pay for that?

I forgotten how much Stamford Tyres quoted.
they say the back rim is different form the front. is it true? the back rim centre is more "deep" in.

As a set, ST quoted well above SGD4k, I got em for well under that. I knew their price is always higher than anyone else.

It's true that the back rim is different from the front , hence Face 1 and Face 2 like I said above. Having said that, it's only the case if u go staggered else u can stick with just one Face. For eg, if u want to get 18in 8.5J all round, you can buy 4 pieces of that for your E46 with ET+36, perfect

Thanks Ed,
U can't go wrong with BBS RS-GT either. Superb rims IMO too! But it sure costs alot more.

Re: So u think u can Volk ME?

Actually 9.5kg per rim is incredible for 19" rim

Re: So u think u can Volk ME?

Agreed......I actually think 11kg for 19in is considered quite light.

Re: So u think u can Volk ME?

MMM,
What kinda technology do they use to make rims this light? Hollow inside? or titanium?

Re: So u think u can Volk ME?

Hey TripleM,
do you mind sharing where you got your rims from?

Deciding between the proggressive ME and RS-GT so i gotta weight the cost and benefits.

Definately RS-GT cost is mad lah. hahaha Anyone know where to get them cheap?

Re: So u think u can Volk ME?

It's a forging technology that uses extreme amount of pressure to force a solid billet of aluminium ( we r talkin bout few thousands tonnes of pressure ). This creates a finished product that is very dense, very strong and can be very light.

Got it from Leong Seng. If u do go there, look for Daniel.
BBS RS-GT is expensive anywhere in the world. U may wanna try South East tires and ask em to indent it for you. I know Stamford is the official distributor too but they are always more expensive.

AXL
This w/e I will take some pix n post em up

Re: So u think u can Volk ME?

cool, thanks for the info!

Re: So u think u can Volk ME?

Get them from Chin Wah. I got three sets from them; 1 set 20" for the M6, 1 set 19" for the 545 and a set 19" for the Golf GTI. All fitted with PS2 tyres. Speak with Ah Peng and tell him I recommended. He'll import them for you at a much more reasonable rate than South East; I'm positive because I also checked with them before ordering from Chin Wah.

Will try and post some photos of the RS-GT on the 545 and GTI tonight.

Re: So u think u can Volk ME?

looking forward to seeing TripleM's rims mounted, rims are so hard to shop for.

they may look fantastic on their own but you really gotta see how it works with the car.
