Hi Guys, As I am sure, many of you will have had the same nightmare as me in trying to choose/find alloys for your Cupra :confused: . I hate those freakin multi spoke Cupra wheels!!!! I have uploaded some photoshopped images to assist anyone who is in this boat.

Wheels include:
Audi RS6 Replicas
Audi RS4 9 Spoke Replicas
New Audi RS4 Replicas
Cupra R alloys
Mille Miglia HT3
BSA Manik
Wolfrace Katana

hmmm... Well I have a cupra with the 16" wheels and I have to say that personally I far prefer them to the 17" ones that you get on the later models. I find most of the "open" low spoke alloys really chavy. If there's even the slightest chance that a similar design will ever be used on one of the cars you could find on the the site linked below then I'm staying well clear.

Basicallly very few road cars have brake set ups that would ever do a low spoke design wheel any justice. Also sorry to burst everyones bubble but low spokers deform more at speed and are technically a inferior wheel design to multispoke designs.

i really like the face lift standard alooys theres not another wheel like them, just wanted to be that little different, as for the multi spokes, they remind me of old wheel trims

Well thanks for that information, but in the REAL world, who cares. If 5 spokes is good enough for an RS6 with twice the Bhp of my car, then 5 spokes is good enough for me.

Out of interest, do you think you could tell whether a car you were driving had multispokes or low spokes if you never actually saw it? I doubt I would.
