If talking original and you have the budget, then I'd pick the RS05RR coz I think it's the lighter of your choices (CMIIW) and the design is also timeless.

I totally support your decision to upgrade to 18 coz by doing this you have choices of those excellent UHP tires which you won't have with the stock size. As for the tire choices, your should go either with the new FK510 or V12E2 coz both are very well proven internationally as excellent high performance tires yet with much more reasonable prices, basically the best bang for the buck. MC6 is not yet well proven since it's mostly just for Malaysia market so I wouldn't get that unless no other choices available.

the design almost same.yeah..i have seen this vff107 too.45 is too low profile.dont suggest 45 series.futhermore the gap between tyre and fender will look big.55 would be ideal in my opinion.v12evo2 is good if it is available for your size.not sure about sure about fk510.stil very new although review is good,might have difficulties finding this model.

Thanks for your opinion. I do agree with you the Rs05RR design is timeless & more versatile compared to the Enkei SC37.

I've enquire few shops for the wheels but most of the shops actually recommend MC6 or the Latitude Tour HP. Im still searching for the correct size. its either 235/55R18 or 235/50R18.

The FK510 or the EVo12V2 would still be my top choice.

Ya i agree with you. 45 maybe too low. I think would opt for 50 or 55.

Btw ive searched through the available 18" profile for FK510, it seems the max sidewall they offering for 18" is 45

Hmm I just checked your tire size conversion and you need to use 235/55/18 which is unfortunately not available for either V12E2 or FK510 coz this is still SUV size tire. Not sure if MC6 is available or not.

US branded rim wor.....can get at this affordable level like advanti/lenso? Any idea where is it manufactured?

Dealer shop also recommend 235/55R18. You are correct, ive searched thru V12E2 & FK510 doesnt have the profile mentioned

So far these are the available tyres for 235/55

1- Yokohama Advan Fleva V701 - not sure price
2- Conti MC6 - RM500+
3- Conti UC6 - RM500+
4- Hankook S1 Evo2 - RM400+

Not sure about Michelin, Toyo etc.

For V12E2 the nearest one available is 235/50R18

Which brand would you choose? Thanks!!

Itu abang definitely say s1evo2

Anyway, s1evo2 factory wheel for tiguan, not too bad.

I think it is manufactured in US.

Yeah the price is very affordable IMO. And so far no imitation Varro rims I can found around.

This is even more headscratching, how can US workmanship cost to be that low??

Anyway, who you contacted regarding the varro rims, kinda interested. Did you manage to also find out the weight of VD06 that you yourself is interested in?

No brainer choice, get the S1 Evo2! That one is also very well proven to be an excellent UHP tire from Hankook, maybe even better than V12E2 and still very closely matched with the new FK510.

varro original rims likely made in taiwan..just like sparco,they are under o.z italy if not mistaken but the rims is made in taiwan so it is affordable.around rm 2500-2600+..same range as varro wheels.
p/s but sparco are not flow forms..the advanti in the range of 2.5k++ are flow form rims.

You have any contacts of shops selling this?

Im just guessing hehe, not sure from where it is manufactured. But Varro Wheels is a California based company.

The VD06 available from 17" up to 22"



So far I ask around, can get from

King of Rims - Shah Alam
TMK Motorsport - I think in Sunway

Oh really. Ok nice thanks!

Ok, thanks for the info.

yeah..they are designed by varro usa,not manufactured.
just like sparco design by oz italy
tyre wise continental engineered in germany but made in malaysia
pirelli also engineered by italy but made in china.
something like this just for example.
so the price will be affordable.

Thanks!!

Btw ive found that this 18" Varro VD06 weighs 8.9kg..

Is that considered lightweight?

The 18" x 8.5J - 8.9kg

and 19" x 9.5J

Considered light or not ya?

about 9kg is consider light.because some flow from rims from advanti,lightest might be 8kg++
