What wheels do I have?

LeMansE93 · 02-09-2024, 02:00 PM

Hey new member and new owner. I have 359 style wheels. There is what looks like RAC etched into the wheels but I can't find anything else about them. I know RAC made the monolite RG4 but those were forged right? And had "FORGED" etched into them. I haven't taken the wheels off. Can anyone identify them?

I don’t think these are RAC RG4’s because your wheels have machining marks on the side of each spokes whereas RG4’s have smooth spokes.. They’re no longer in business so looking up what their other wheel styles looked like is going to be difficult. They’re basically another copy of the original BBS design with machining marks/“light-weighting” of the spokes. Your wheels may tell you what the width and offset of each wheel is but I doubt it’ll have any additional info on the manufacturer/model of the wheels. Perhaps someone here knows the model and can confirm the manufacturer is RAC.

Avantgarde or Apex?
