hi there i just wanted to know more about these alloys (regamaster evo) are they rare and hard to get, also are they same as the regamaster desmond alloys??
cheers
 
Hi mate ,what is it you would like to know? They each weight roughly 3.8kg so very light wheels.They can be hard to get as alot of people that have them know how much they are worth and how rare they are getting as the years go on :( .But at the right price people do part with them,its just a matter of finding them .It took me the best part of 6months to source mine. You could be looking to pay anywhere between £700-£1500 per set of 4. |To answer ur last question,yes they are the same company.They are also the same company as spoon.
 
all depends what size/stud pattern/offset your looking for.

and be carefull nobody trys to sell you "rota" slipstreams etc with stickers on them :secret:

Well i know they are 15 inch and are 4x100, but im waiting on the seller to take the tyre off and get a picture of the stamp on the alloy, and yh im going to make sure their not slipstreams good thing i already got a set of them.

Are rota slipstreams worth same as the regamaster evo's?
 
rather than powder coating a very rare origional wheel which in my eyes devalues the wheel, look out for spoon sw888 theyre the same wheel as the regamaster desmond evo wheels only they are anodised black (mat black) by spoon and they are sexy on my mates yellow ek9, sorry for bad spelling xmas drinks are having and effect haha happy christmas lads :D

no

rega evo's are proper forged wheels and much lighter weight than the rota

should have a stamp on the back "made in russia"

very lightweight wheels and are cool, just a shame they have such poor brake clearance :((
 
Yeh the brake clearance is'nt great to be honest but really kool and rare wheels. Slipstreams are not worth anywhere near regas! If u want to powdercoat them a different colour then go for it dude, most regas nowadays have been repainted or powdercoated at somepoint.

Also as steven sayed make sure it has "made in russia" stamped on the back!

All the best mate ;)
 
My 15" Rega's went over my 5 stud setup with Prelude 282's without spacers, it was close though.
 
in comparison, my P1's need 6mm spacer to clear my brakes, the rega's would have required 25mm spacers

both 15" wheels too

if you are running fairly standard brake setups then they are ideal

spoon didn't think it through too well, 15x6.5" ET42 rega evo wheels need 6mm spacer minimum to clear spoon calipers, haha

That is a fair point! lol.

Mine are 15x6.5" ET35 so theoretically having 7mm more more of an offset they should fit with spoon calipers? Not on the list just thinking.
 
Thanks for all the comments lads much appreciated!!
Yh i read up that they should be labelled saying desmond etc.. And be engraved saying made in russia in the centre stud area but on the back of the rim.

Yh i think im going to go for them, but you lot are mentioning clearance etc..You think they be a straight fit onto my jordan ek4 its got standard brakes and calipers
