Going OT here but yours and Simos are my favourite RS' ever ;/

Cheers Deaks, Simo's was/is my favourite !
I miss my old 197 sometimes, i should never have sold it. Just dropped a Megane lump in there instead.

Again abit OT but where would one get hold if the AP set up an how much roughly? I'm looking at them and the Godspeed setup at the moment

How light in weight are these? Was looking at these a few days ago in 17" format.

Not sure of the exact weight but they felt alot lighter than the standard wheels when i fitted them.

evocorse 17x8 et65
the only downside that i can think of is that they are for racing use only, so there is no way to fit any centre caps.
the price is around €900 or £790

Do the raider wheels throw out the speedo or handling on the standard 200 also what price are these normally and what tyre size do these require?

The garage i bought mine at hat another 200 on 17" Turinis. Looked spiffing.

Anyone got any pics/links?

No, although the Raider wheels are 18's I think the tyre profile is 40 instead of 45.. I could be proved wrong though

What are the cheapest alloys available that fit the 197 If I bought new?
I'm looking for some spare ones for trackdays/winter.
Obviously 2nd hand would suit me fine in pretty much any condition as long as they are not buckled!

I think they make alloys for vw and Audi. They are awful but cheap maybe they will do the job!

I want to spend half that max to be honest

 

[benjabien]

On eBay there is a set of team dynamics in great condition with tyres that have 6mm tread all round for 450

thats the thing you pay £300 for new wheels there either going to look crap, or general be crap, second hand market however will be your friend
