Spotted these for sale in the UK.. but at $6,500 ex freight, duties and taxes I don't think we'll see this set up locally.

am look for some advice from other readers

have a Golf 7R manual on order and looking for new wheels of the same size as the OEM 19" wheels

like the Rays Volks Racing G25 wheels from Japan - has anyone bought locally or have any experience with or advice on buying Rays wheels?

Hey mate,

Locally you can try Tyrepower hawthorn, that's where I got my Rays from. The other option is directly from Japan through someone like Jesse Streeter (top bloke) or perfectrun.

I like this forged alloy wheel, but it's not made with PCD 5x112 or with a centre bore diameter of 57.1mm to suit our required specification. It's a pity as the rest of the spec is good for 19x8 or 19x8.5. Check it out here: RAYS WHEELS

[Dutch77]

The Rays G25 do come in 5x112 and a friendly ET48 in 19 x 8, and also ET45 in 19 x 8.5 which as Avdo has posted elsewhere re: his Rays is good on the back, with a little poke on the front so up to each individual as to how they feel about it: RAYS WHEELS

I believe, as Avdo also suggested, they need to be acquired via a distributor. A quick quote from Vivid Racing (USA) netted a result over $5k before duties/taxes so probably closer to $6k AUD. I'd definitely be checking in locally first as a comparison.

given that you are in Sydney, give Budi at Autotechniktuning a call. He is an authorized Rays dealer in Australia.

Auto Technik - The Art of Tuning

I bought my Enkeis, Rays and SSR wheels all from him.

Yes, you are correct. I was looking at the "domestic" pages and not the "import" pages. There is still a discrepancy with the listed bore size of 73.1mm, or have I missed something? If local pricing is anything like Vivid Racing's, I'd give these wheels a wide berth.

All you need is a hub ring. From 73.1 to 57.1, should be included with the wheels. If not, try ebay.

Correct, most wheels will come with these. My OZs on both occasions came with them.
