Red face New Vendor RijoEngineering gets VSKF to WORK

Just Got These finally on wednesday after waiting a little while.. LOVE the finish and LOVE the wheels.. the fitment is exactly the same as the old "Blues", the only difference is that in the rear instead of a 10" (Blue) i went w/ 10.5, which Added the .5" to the inside. the outside is exactly the same.. i know some of you will be saying " too far out, but the outside is the exact same as blue only difference ive found is the straigh lip makes it look as if its protruding more.

Also Check in the FS section for these badboys,https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showforum=107
you might be wondering "why riley, why sell" well i bought these for the sole purpose to find out if adding 1inch evenly (half in and half out) to the front and 1/2" to the inside rear would fit ok, and it does im actually going to order the next set 11" rear adding a full inch to the inside... which will be my keeper set (i think).. the onloy reason ive been whoring out wheels is to test fit each setup on the car(as posted in other threads).
[SIZE=7]
these wheels are 18x9F(+58)* and 18x10.5R(+52)* WORK

holding open for future editing.


The Rears Look out more than blues because of rear camber, the camber bolts are way off my used to be alignment.. im looking at -2.2 on left and -1.9 on right
whereas they were at -4.3 L before and -4.1R. this alone is about a 20mm difference (would be 20mm more in once aligned)

I really like your cutting edge ideas, but I still am not sure if I think either set fits correctly

Sorry in advance, not trying to bad-mouth or bash you... you had many nice wheels in the past, and I follow all of your threads, but these don't look very good at all! (IMO)

The rear wheels look like they stick out way to far (whether they rub or not, I can't say, but they look kinda goofy).

And the wheel really doesn't suit the sporty lines of the S. They look like they belong on a pimped-out BMX X5 or Porsche Cayenne.

But hey, as long as your happy, that's what counts.
Oh, and I hope these wheels don't last long, 'cause I can't wait to see what's next

I'm loving the huge lip on these , but the VS-KF aren't my favorite wheels for the S. They look nice, but just not my style. I would kill for a set of your old meisters.

They look too exaggerated. Like a Tonka toy or something....It takes away from the sleek lines of the car.
