Racingline Cup Edition ‘EVO’ 18″ x 8.5″ (ET45) Matte Gun Metal Grey Alloy Wheel
The Racingline Cup Edition ‘EVO’ is a track-developed alloy wheel that brings genuine motorsport engineering to your road car. Measuring 18″ x 8.5″ with an ET45 offset and finished in a clean Matte Gun Metal Grey, this wheel is designed to give you a stronger, lighter and more purposeful setup, whether you’re commuting, attending track days, or building a fast road car.
As an authorised Racingline retailer, we supply these wheels exactly as developed by Racingline themselves, using the same specification fitted to their in-house test and race vehicles.
Built for Road and Track
At just 9.7kg per wheel, the EVO strikes a sensible balance between reduced weight and the strength needed to survive kerbs, potholes and hard track use. Lower wheel weight (known as unsprung mass) helps your suspension respond more quickly, which can improve ride quality, steering feel and braking performance.
The 18″ diameter has been chosen deliberately. It allows a taller, squarer tyre sidewall, which is better suited to track driving and reduces the risk of arch rubbing on lowered cars compared with larger diameter wheels.
Engineering and Testing
- Tested to ISO 7141 standards with a maximum load rating of 560kg per wheel
- Knurled bead seats to prevent the tyre slipping or rotating on the rim under heavy braking or hard cornering
- Drainage cutouts to stop water and debris becoming trapped, helping to prevent long-term corrosion
- Precision-machined for geometric accuracy, impact resistance and fatigue strength
Fitment
With a 5×112 PCD and ET45 offset, the Cup Edition EVO is designed to fit a wide range of Volkswagen Group models on the MQB, MQB EVO and A5 platforms. This covers many popular VW, Audi, SEAT, Cupra and Skoda performance models.
Always confirm fitment using the vehicle lookup on our site or check the Vehicle Fitment tab before ordering. Spacers and suitable tyre sizing may be required depending on your specific car and suspension setup.
Purchase Options
This listing is available as a Single Wheel or as a Full Set of four, allowing you to replace a damaged wheel or kit out your entire car in one go.
