RMD wheels
 
Has anyone bought a set of the RMD kit car wheels? I had a look at them at Stoneleigh and they looked very nice. I would love to have a set of Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2s but at over £30 more per wheel I am struggling to justify the extra £120 that will pay for some other nice goodies!

Just wondered if anyone had any opinions on these wheels?

Are these the one's Dave ?

RMD Alloys

Never come across them before, I quite like them though :)

The price is certainly a lot lower that the Team Dynamic's 1.2's

May I ask if you saw them on a RD stand at a show or have you seen them being sold direct ?

That is the kinda look I want for my build & at a price that I can live with :cool: :)

Yup those are the ones Ronnie.

I saw them on the RD stand at Stoneleigh. The wheels only come in ford fitment and a single size. But that has allowed Rally Design to order a big batch and hence the price.

I think one of the members on here is connected with Rally Design - perhaps they could give us some more info?

Thank's Dave :)

With a little luck, I might be able to see them in the flesh at Exeter this year.

Being a Ford only fit is a bonus for me, for some strange reason I really do not like multi fit alloys ( Unless they have a centre cap ) :confused:

As said, they have the multi spoke look that I had in mind :cool:

Personally, I have a sweet spot for the Minilite alloys but the sheer cost of them is prohibitive at the moment :eek:

I bought a pair of pro race 1.2's 15" in black off ebay for £255+ £30 postage so there are deals to be had. Perfect condition apart from 1 which has a small kerb on it.

Keep a look out you might find a bargin.

Here's whats on my build at the mo



They came off an Escort GTI, I am sure TT will know what they are called :)

Could live with them if I had too .... Got a nice new set of Toyo's ready to fit to whatever I end up with :) :)

They look nice Ronnie, if you sand all the scuffs off them and take them into a car sprayer and get them painted and lacquered, black i would say, they will look really cool. Go well with the Red.

Look very similar to mine.....:)

Like mine? :D



Although they're white at the mo, need redoing back to how they were in the above pic.
