Pics of wheels on B7

Hi guys, thinking of changing my scuffed wheels and just wondered if people could post pics of their cars so that I can see what I like....

I don't want wheels that are heavier or weaker than std, I'm looking to upgrade/improve rather than replace good wheels with some cheap and nasty rubbish..... :)

Hi Gumball.
I had 19" Bimoto ones on mine for a little while... but to be honest i didnt like the drive on them... found them abit too bangy and clangy. Maybe just me but i prefer the standards so got them back on although they did look extremely good on the RS4.

Coupla pics with the MTMs on.

the MTM wheels are a lot heavier than standard aren't they?

Here's something were working on for 2011......

forget the diamond cut finish as plan to do them in Audi 8AU matt laquar finish:

Looking into 19" and 20" but I get the general feeling that 19's seem to be the most popular size...?

So what are they Glenn; VMR, BBS, HRE?

BTW MTM Bimoto's are a good bit heavier then OEM wheels (and looked chunky on the B7 but ideal on the more rounded B5 RS4 and B6 S4) and Sportec Mono's IIRC were a couple of kilo's per wheel heavier then OEM as well.

Cheers mate.

Yes, was going to sell but now potentially having second thoughts.... and if I end up keeping it, I'm going to probably jazz it up a bit :)

i've recently put 20" S5 alloys on with 265/30x20's. 3mm spacers on the front to clear the calipers.

I think Bimoto's look amazing on that car

I'd like a set but they are rare and expensive in the States
if anybody has a set they want to sell please PM me

TBH I still like if I were to change the C6 RS6 OEM look but the spacers do worry me that are needed to wear those. I also wonder what the new TT-RS / RS5 5 spokes look like in the RS4?

Only issue with both, they will be / are being done to death on standard Audi models but then perhaps no worse than the B7 RS4 reps on everything else Audi do.....

They look really good! OEM but still a little different. I was looking at having 20" rs4 style on my rs4 saloon but was worned away? How does it drive and was it fairly easy to sort?
