    RPM wheels for my Polo

    Hi guys, newbie here.. was wondering what your opinion is on these RPM SP-01 wheels

    Really like the multi spoke look and OZ wheels superturismo gt are alittle heavy and pricy for me

    They look Ok, but...

    If you like the multi spoke look, why dont you try and track down a set of Aristos(I think thats what they're called, Mk IV R32 wheels)? there are also 17" versions around

    Nice wheels for an OEM + look and you could probably find a set for a grand to a grand and a half.

    Weren't the Aristo's also quite a heavy wheel?

    Yeah ur right, very nice wheel i like.... buuut their 26-27lbs (~12kg) and thats almost 4Kg more than the RPM im interested in. so thats about 16kg more once their on. And i can get them put on with good tyres and fitment balance etc etc for 1400-1500

    They're alright...

    What about Evaded's 16 inch Superturismos in the for sale section? They're cheap as. Should be able to get some nice grippy tyres for them too without having to worry about odd sizes.

    Went and saw the RPM wheels in person today, not quite what i want

    Can anyone suggest a 17" x7 5/100 multispoke wheel in silver?
    so far i have looked at:
    OZ superturismo
    Aristo's
    Exor STP
    and will a R32 replica fit?
