I was looking at the bbs in HK-steves pic, RX-II's i think and the BBS CH but could only find them in 8.5x18.
Very nice wheels although a little expensive for me also i wanted an 8x18" rim as any wider and you have to strech a 225 tyre over the rim loosing curb protection.

Had a look at the sportec's too but as clive said i think these wheels are 30lb each and way too overpriced for a wheel this weight. But they do look good.

Very pleased with the OZ's, they look much better in the flesh.

@Nige - any idea the weight of the 18" Sportecs? The thread in the Classifieds suggests they're 13.7kg - sounds a lot (30lbs)
Yep, Sportec 18" are 30lbs, 19's are even heavier - nice looking wheels though!

Here's a good site for wheel pics for the S4.

Kevin,
It is indeed Cactus green. I also have that colour and have never seen another S4 the same - until today :D
From what I have seen Goodwood green as used on the RS4 is slightly darker. Could just have been the light though.

I really like the BBS designs and their lack of weight. This page is pretty good to see how they would look on a range of Audi's - no B5 S4 though.
