21" Black Gloss RS6 Alloys with winter tyres

Post by anth8910 » Wed Dec 09, 2015 6:48 pm

Hi all,
Considering purchasing a set of 21" genuine black gloss RS6 alloys with Dunlop winter sport tyres 7mm all round. They are used with very minor scuffs on (smart repair should sort). Is 2k a reasonable price?

If they have scuff marks on the outer edge then theses wheels are diamond cut so does the mobile smart repair chap have a machine for that. Every time I have need a wheel refurbished with a diamond cut edge I've sent it to spit and polish or Lepsons.

if I was paying 2k id like them mint or knock of some cash to get a refurb

Damage is minor. The tyres are in good nick, but I'm not taking delivery of the car until March so it's going to be for next year really. Audi quoted nearly 3k for 20" with winter tyres which looked a bit naff but these are the same that I ordered on the car so would be a better choice.

Earlier in the year, you could buy the 20" fitted with winters new for just over £2k from German Audi dealers on eBay,.

They seem to have run out of stock, now its compulsory time of year over there, but I'd guess they'll be back up next year.
Having said that, it seems like a decent price if wheels are ok.

I think Audi are asking £2900 right now for 20" winter tyre pack, so this seems about right so long as the wheels aren't too rough.

Whereabouts are you? I may have a set of wheels to go plus Dunlops that are currently unfitted to go. They have tpms fitted and are diamond cut and satin black

They are in as new condition and the tyres have decent tread left.

If any int PM me

Final question, the car isn't due until March but I currently have an A6 BiTdi avant on 255/35/20. Would these fit the car or would I need spacers?

I'd be surprised if they'd fit. Normally the RS wheels have low offsets to clear the big brakes and when fitted to non RS cars they normally stick out too much.

The offset on the rs wheel is 25. On the A6 it is 45.

So if they were the same width the rs wheel would stick out 20mm more than the normal wheel. But it is probably wider too.
