Seems like a great deal to me. I was quoted £600 for one Genuine Audi wheel last week from my local dealership!

From what research I just done they are made in Germany and are the same company who make Porsche's OEM wheels...... which should mean great quality?

Might have to be an early Xmas present!!

Sorry but I think they would look cr@p and really spoil the look of your car. Also a nightmare to keep clean with all those arms.

not worried about cleaning them! I clean my car 2 or 3 times a week so that wont be the problem just down to weather they would look right?

see pictures of 19" wheels on an Accord, I just think flush up against the wide arches of the RS4 they would look pretty dam hot as it happens! but keep the views coming please!!

You cant beat the OEM wheels IMO. Start putting on aftermarket wheels and you'll cheapen the look of your car, a beautiful Mugello Blue RS4 just wont look right with these wheels, take my word for it.

I second that.

Totally agree.

If you want 20" wheels which I agree would look good, RS Quattro were doing polished and blackened ones in original design although costly at over £2,000. Now they did look the business. Personally I don't like that many spokes. Reckon Kahn 5 spoke RSC's would look the dogs as well. IMHO only a few wheels would improve on the OEM look and they are expensive.

Not my bag either - I much prefer the OEM ones...

I'm not that keen on them, and I don't think they even look that good on the Honda either.

I think the OEM RS4 wheels are so perfectly suited to the car that it's very difficult to improve upon them. Most attempts that I've seen at this have resulted in a slightly chavvy-looking car. There are always gonna be the pretenders who want to try and create that fast Audi look with an inferior model of A4 and you certainly don't want people thinking that you are one of those!

I'm in a similar boat as you (no puns folks, I ditched the DRC long ago!

) in that I personally find the 5-arm '6+ wheels a tiny bit on the plain side. I'm considering changing them but am finding this a daunting prospect both lookswise and costwise!

Good luck with your choice

No dont do it, I love car modding, but there is a line you have to draw!

I know those rims, and as said above you can beat OEM, if you must change your wheels, BBS do some really great rims!

I agree OEM are probably the best but with every second VAG car running RS4 replicas it sometimes nice to be a bit different.

Need to get decent pics of the HRE P40s to illustrate IMHO, only got grainy pics at the moment.

HRE P40's would look MAD!

I've seen these on a black 997 and they looked AWESOME!

I have already looked at P40's but 5k is just too much for wheels and tyres for me!

they do look nice though......
