Racingline Cup Edition 'EVO' 8.5J x 18inch Alloy Wheel Set - Gunmetal Grey
The RacingLine Performance Cup Edition 'EVO' - 18" Alloy Wheel Set - Gloss Black
THIS LISTING IS FOR A SET OF FOUR ALLOY WHEELS
The VWR ‘Cup Edition’ EVO 18" Alloy Wheel updates RacingLine’s classic ‘Cup Edition’ design with a lighter weight, a fresh new appearance and some lovely detailing. The result is an ultra-strong yet lightweight rim capable of repeatedly coping with the extreme demands that track driving brings.
It comes in the ideal track dimensions for MQB/MQBE cars of 8.5 x 18" diameter with an ET45 offset. The choice of 18" rim is ideal for track use, allowing a higher-profile, squarer tyre fitment without risk of excessive rubbing. Fitment covers all VWG models on MQB, MQB EVO and A5 platforms with 5x112 PCD.
Strength remains the design priority for the ‘Cup Edition’ EVO wheel. With a load rating of 560kg per wheel, these wheels have the strength to cope with repeated, harsh track use.
It's essential for the rim to have this sort of strength engineered-in from the conception of the design – to be capable of containing the 'spike loads' running through a wheel hitting circuit kerbing through a corner at speed without damage or deformation.
A lot of RacingLine’s development time was focussed on weight reduction, but without making any compromises in the strength needed to meet the demands of road or track.
Weight-saving aspects of the updated design include material removal in the front and back of each spoke, drainage cut-outs in the mounting face (which also ensures no water or debris gets trapped between wheel and hub face causing long term corrosion), and even a groove running around the outer rim to trim a few extra grams off.
The resulting weight of each wheel is just 9.7kg / 21.3lbs, whilst still retaining a load rating of 560kg.
Notes:
Do we ship abroad ?
Yes we do, to almost anywhere in the world though remember the postage is often high when shipping anything bulky. Most bulky items we export will go by DHL so you can track the package online and could reach America within 48 hours providing its in stock !
However there are a few countries we do not ship to, some of these include: Israel, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Russia, Nigeria, Macedonia, Syria, Ukraine, Lebanon.
Why is postage on bulky items to some countries expensive compared to some other companies ?
For both yours and our safety we use well known courier Parcel Force and DHL for shipping, then we know exactly where it is in the world at any time and we know its going to arrive safely. Shipping small items can be cheap, but items such as bodykits are expensive to ship - we have a very small margin on the postage fees merely to cover packaging. We can now ship using standard post on some items, however using all methods you may incur import charges when you receive the goods for which we cant be responsible for.
