That does not look like an RS6 at all. Hope it's just a really bad photo.

I think it's a combination of a poor angle and those wheels. Can't immediately find something non-RS6 on it.

Are those Sportecs? I really like them. EDIT: OZ, nevermind.

Two of my standard wheels are dented on the inner edge and slightly buckled, the whole set need refurbing too... not sure whether to spend the money tarting them up or just get a nice set of aftermarket wheels.

It's hard to beat the standard wheels.

If I had to change I'd put the 20" RS4 B7 style wheels on. They were an option on the C6 RS6.

Cheers Shop, I'll mull this over. You're right though the standard wheels do look good. Hmmm.

Standard wheels are nice, just a shame that got very common.
Think the picture on the other page looks poor cause of the wheel colour.

My first impression was they looked poo because they were 8.5x19r and poorly spaced. Weren't Footer's wheels 9.5x19r and running 275 section? They certainly don't look anaemic compared to the others.

Wooo, nitrous! :twisted: Hope he's got a 517 transmission and a progressive nitrous controller, i wonder how much extra hp he has it jetted for.

Thumbs down for still having comfort seats though! Some nice RS4 buckets would have been nice to go with those 4 point harnesses.
