i am surprised 20" cheaper aftermarket replicas havent become available yet. are rs5 front and rear wheels the same? i thougt they might be a different dish (like an M3) and that would be the issue?

Got wheels fitted to car today, but trying to upload pictures with no success would anyone be able to post them for me if I emailed them to them.
Thanks

If you haven't done so already get yourself a free photobucket account, upload them to there and then just copy the direct links and insert them in your post using the Img tab above the text writing box between [*] and URL

mmmmm, not sure IMO

i love them on the boxyness of the A5, not sure they suit the bulgeyness of the RS 4

well done though for breaking the mould and being the first

thanks for the comments so far, thats is without the spacers at the moment as with the bumpy roads up here I think i will need to install the uprated ARB's before the spacers but will look great when done. Will PM the details SKG_RS4.
Thanks

I like ALOT!! Colour goes well with the car. Might not suit misano and sprint but I think it would also look good with avus.
