Hi there,

I've purchased a set of staggered 18's and what caught my eye was that they were made in Germany. From my understanding, most cast alloys are made in either Taiwan or China. What I also know is for example the Veeman VC359's, it's only the 19's and 20's that have a flow formed barrel so pretty much the 18's CSL reps are all cast. I know that APEX have the ARC-8's and EC-7's, flow formed barrel but the styling is well off, especially the EC-7's with it's seven spoke.

So my question is does anyone know who manufactured these CSL reps? I know these aren't genuine OEM but curious to know if the manufacturer are any good or not.

I will be getting these checked, from what I can see there are no cracks and bulges but if given the green light, i'll get these refurbished. I wish I could get 19's for my E82 Coupe but I've been told that fitting is always an issue, flaring the arches and using low profile tyres which doesn't sound ideal.

Thanks,

F
