What wheels are you running?

Post by Doug_RS6 » Mon Jan 28, 2019 7:22 pm

Hey folks got a C6 RS6 in Sepang blue. Currently has OEM wheels in anthrecite. However I'm not a fan and am looking to change things a bit. Car currently has the brushed alloy trim but this is getting changed to gloss black shortly.

I'm either thinking change of wheels entirely (do I go to 21s? I find aftermarket wheels often look smaller) or a satin black finish on the OEM wheels ideally I'd rather not need to buy wheels and tyres as my tyres are new. So any pics of what folk have fitted and size specs would be great (wheel and tyre sizes/offset etc)

Thanks

Dave

Vossen in my opinion is the only suitable alternative for RS's - both aesthetically and functionality wise.

ps. if you are planning to retain a car for foreseeable future keep the OEM set for winter.

i'd suggest lowering in that case... complement it with H&R ARB's and it will be like "mobile" gorilla glue like ;).

I have H&R lowering springs to fit. I haven't done it though as due to the DRC it's not really a diy job sadly. I have fitted spacers to push the wheels out.
