They were custom made for a DUB show and now reside on a soft top red RS4 with cream interior if memory serves.

Can't be bothered to go through 15 pages of his thread but it'll probably be mentioned in there somewhere, although he changes wheels like the wind changes direction.

Sorry Brad but I have to take issue with your thread! ;)

'Whats the best looking aftermarket alloys?' You ask.

That's like asking 'who's the fittest pinup?' Or what's the nicest food out there, or most beautiful painting...

They are all subjective, the reason there's so many is because everyone's different.

Tell you what would be a good experiment. Build a car using a voting poll - it would look like a freak! Lol

Buy what 'you' like not what everyone else does.

Fair point Jay...

I probably worded thread title somewhat misleading.

Filtering down I was after what style/colour/spoke ect to suit Sprint blue colour RS 4....

Some certain style alloys suit certain cars.

Crikey please don't shoot me anymore lol

:biggrin3:

Would it really come out like a freak?

At a basic level........

I mean the engine stuff, Milly, MRC stage two etc would prob top the polls there

Standard Air box over CAI or Revolution? Recon CAI would take that

As for wheels, the most common would be other Audi OEM designs and other than that, BBS would prob be a popular brand

V spokes off the b8 looked good on a B7 if it's lowered and spaced correctly

Couldn't have said it better, it's your car and if you like a certain set of alloys then that's all that matters.

That's not AM, that's OEM+. If that's how we're going to roll then these are THE best OEM wheels, EVAH!

I think, imo, ADV are the 'best' but they're also absurdly expensive. There are luckily a lot of really good OEM options for Audis so OEM+ is still my favoured route. For now.
