if you guys want 18" 5x100, they can made to order.
But we must have 10-15 sets at least to place an order.
We can choose 18x8 or 18x9, offset and CB can choose by us.


As in 10 sets all the same width and offset? Or 10 sets of 18's in whatever?

I'd be in for 18x9, +30, 56.1.

Are the rims forged and spokes casted? Also, how much do they weigh? Do you have an actual picture of the rim? Are they from the same factory that produces Linea Corsa's?

For 19 inch is around 12-12.5kg, for 18 inch is 10.6-11 kg.
Quite sure not the same factory of Linea Corsa's. The first picture is the actual picture of the product which I took by iPhone, but it's 18 inch 5x112 for Audi and Volkswagen.

Wheels alone change the look of a car the most.
