They haven't come in yet. They just shipped last night or this morning. I'll post pics up as soon as I get them on the car.

BUMP to see your Neuspeed Rse14 in your Golf R???
Wait, so the R comes with 235/40/R18 in Europe if 18" wheels are selected? What about GTI?
The Euro R comes stock with the same 18" rims and tire size as well get.

are that Workwheels??
Question - Have US spec Golf R . Stock wheels are 18". Thinking of buying a summers wheelset/tire combo for occasional recreational track days. Would going from the stock 18's with stock PNero Zeros to a neuspeed Rse14 19" rim and a 225/35/18 tire ( not decided on brand yet) effect my speedometer accuracy. Thanks for any input/advice.

Aside that the speedo is already off from the factory (i.e. conservative), the change in readout would be negligible (~1.6%) going from a 225/40/18 to 235/35/19. You can use some online wheel calculators to see how much of a difference it will make.
Thanks Audiohs. Appreciate the insight. Also, the new wheels will be lighter weight than stock. Would the larger diameter offset the weight savings benefits. The Neuspeeds would save approx 4lbs per wheel. Also considering Volk G25's which could potentially save 8 pounds per wheel?

The Neuspeeds are indeed a lighter wheel as you mentioned so you will benefit from it. Some tires are also known to be lighter weight than others. So you should look at the entire weight of the wheel and tire together as they will have an impact on unsprung weight.
