Vag Motorsport in Laval.

Kevin is the contact. Can PM you details if you want. Let me know.

It's about $1000 cheaper than going the Apex group buy route.

I'm interested in 18" setup for M2 (18x8 R163A black Replika) with Hakka R2 (245/40 R18). Could you ask for a quote? Thanks!

Theres someone selling apex ec7 18 in the e92 forum, wheels only for 1600. I would take that over any replicas out there.

I would shoot Victor an e-mail directly at info@rennsportire.ca

He will get back to you with numbers. If you pair up with FrozenCommunist you guys will get a better deal.

Just to add to this, I don't think Victor can get Hakka's though.

He did offer them to me for my 19" option, I chose not to go with them though.

Gotcha. I think I would be more comfortable with Alpin PA4's. The snow we get in Toronto is cleared pretty quickly. I would rather have the dry pavement performance. And on days of heavy snow, I'll just Uber it or work from home. FTW!

I'm in the same boat being in Ottawa - roads are cleared fairly quickly. Michelin Alpin's get great reviews!

Is the 'group' buy from Victor still happening? I'll go in on a 19" with PA4. What's the cost down to?

Yes it's still happening. I'm picking up my winter set up on Friday. Andycc is getting fitted tomorrow and may also pick up Friday if he likes the wheels. If you want in on the group buy, it needs to be this Friday. Not sure if anyone else is interested.

$150 off if 2-3 people are buying. Send me a PM in you're interested and I'll give Victor a heads up.

Hi all.

Just to provide an update, I ended up going with Fast Wheels FC04 in 19x8.5 with Michelin Pilot PA4 as my winter set up. I was originally going to go with Replika R141 style wheels, but due to a mishap at Fastco's warehouse, Fastco stepped up and hooked me up with these wheels instead. Awesome customer service.

I'm glad I did as these wheels look great and are super light. They weigh 21 lbs. In addition, they are flow formed wheels so much stronger than cast wheels. Should help during winter pothole season.

I have to say that Victor @ Rennsportire has been absolutely amazing to deal with. Top notch service. Super responsive and patient to all my questions. I highly recommend him. Even dealing with Fastco directly to address the mishap has been top notch as well. Very happy with both Victor and Fastco.

And what's a thread without some pics...









I don't have my F80 yet, and I couldn't find any pics of this wheel on an F80, but this is an idea of what it would look like mounted.

Nice man! Glad all went well with Victor as well!
