Well I finally got my new summer wheels on. They are Ispiri FFR1 in 19 inch. 8.5j all round ET42.

In order to clear the front RS3 calipers I used a 5mm spacer. So the total offset on the front is actually ET37.

On the rear no spacer was needed to clear the calipers but I used a 3mm spacer anyway for the arch fill and looks.

No rubbing or issues at all with the RO2 oem tyres. Running 255's on the front and 235's on the rear.

Another plus is that these wheels are Flow Formed which means they are super light. They weight just 9.7kg. Compare that to the 14kg 8j, and 14.5kg 8.5j Oem Rotors it's a massive unsprung weight saving.









I'm really happy with them. Better than I had expected and really work with the Alu Pack.

Looking good

[rocketer]

Looking nice , pretty expensive though . 

[JamesBaby]

Not too bad imo. They're way cheaper than the OZ, Vossen and BBS options I was considering.

Thanks guys. I'm really happy. The shade of silver of the wheels really blends well with the Alu pack and the blue. And on 19' with the OEM 255r\235 tyre setup too.

I've been looking at these and spoke to the Nice Irish chap at Ispiri, quite fancy the Graphite ones.

He said they would even supply the spacers (3 or 5mm) new bolts specifically for these alloys and Ali spigot rings too.

Yes I spoke with Neville there and he did me the deal. The whole shabang with hubcentric spacers, the correct longer bolts and metal spigot rings. 

 

The graphite are nice too.

Another pic. Shows the flushness/poke more clearly.

Have you a close up picture that shows how close they are to the 8 pot caliper ?

[JamesBaby]

At its closest point/edge to the caliper there is 3mm which is enough imo.
