Steve,

 

I'm guessing they're the same as mine... LD Prestige LDM091 wheels: https://www.ldpresti...2-45-66-pol-blk

 

Great quality - I've got two sets!  :lol:

 

Gav

Great quality ??

 

I would not say that Gav

mine were absolute rubbish ,I had the same ones  2 of them buckled and were no good after going down 2 different potholes !

waste of £ reps are not as strong as the real ones  !!!!

 

although they looked great .

 

I now have some "Judd 311R "on mine .

 

Looks so much better . well in my opinion anyway  :)

You can’t make a sweeping statement because you’ve (or the missus) has been unlucky in hitting potholes Roy

Audi oem wheels are notorious for buckling too.

Time will tell if these wheels meet the same misfortune as the last set.

They look great . I'm looking for a set up for the winter . Excuse my lack of knowledge but is there any reason why you've chosen to go 235 all round ?

Thanks Buddy!

 

So is the house.

 

Yeh just the little weekend place for when I need to get out of the city.  Obviously I'm joking, it's a place called Warbrook House in Hook, Hampshire. 

Was best man for a mates wedding and got asked to park the car out the front for the wedding photographer to takes pictures of it (I drove him to the church etc!)  Anyway, I left it there, went and got smashed and it stayed there overnight!

Thanks man!  As for the tyres, no real reason, other than I'm cheap!  Can rotate front's to backs if I wanted to, get more use out of them!

Have you lowered the car or put spacers on it??

Stock ride height (currently) and no spacers.  Wheel specs are just more suited to the car.  19x8.5 et45.

I bought from this seller.

Just drop them a message to double check coding fitment before you buy them.

Instead of £144 for the eBay copies  ;)

I'm looking to go with these for winter use and transferring my original tyres over onto them . Do you guys think I will have rubbing issues on the front with the 255 tyre (OEM pirelli) ?
