Some 18 x 8.5 ET35s:

New VMR 801s in 18 x 8.5 ET45 on PSS 235/40 tyres:







These look to be inspired by the BMW M3/4 Competition wheels with the concavity focused on the centre.

Well.. no. Given it's a mock-up it could be any number of wheels or variations of unfortunately.

The writing on the spoke is similar to Oettinger, but their wheels such as the RE don't feature the writing (and don't have that spoke design).

Some alternatives that could be considered:

1. Rotiform NUE - particularly the forged version, but $$$
2. Team Dynamics Pro Race 3 - but only in 17"? So not likely
3. Finest FN2 (Finest-Felgen - FN2) - closest fit and a 5x112, 19 x 8.5, ET45 wheel

Other options less lining up but with some cred could include Fifteen52 Tarmac or 3SDM 0.05 - ok, we're way off base now but it'd look retro cool.

I reckon that you hit it in one with the Roti forged 3 piece NUE rim. I'm going to have to find out where I can order these.

The Audi fitted with them on the Rotiform gallery looks epic.

The cast wheels are distributed widely in Australia - there will be 4-5 dealers close to you - but not sure if any will deal with forged product which would be custom ordered. If you're keen and ok with the budget I'd be inclined to look at a direct purchase from the USA.

I'm about 2 weeks behind here; new job keeping me away from the wheel thread, grr!

I know Adam will have missed this, an HRE set on ED springs:

Mmmm, yes!

Attachment 30574

Mmmm, YES!

Looks tough, in a JDM way.
