Where these OEM reps
Or another after market brand? |
The new ones are aftermarket. The ones removed were OEM 215 style on RFT. I basically lost 1" width all around with the new rims spec |
Yea sometimes the reps can get tricky to get around patent laws they make changes. You need at least 10% variation to get past a design patent so some will
Play with offset, width and size till they feel they reach the 10% threshold.
So you have to watch the specs like a eagle or it can screw you up.
The ones that are close to 100% never last to long and get discontinued pretty quickly.
The Audi ones I got for the TT had a slight offset difference and I needed spacers in order to clear the calipers. So I know your pain! |
I should clarify I didn't get reps. I got aftermarket rims. Different style from OEM
