You should buy these from me instead for $150 each.
Hell, I even have a spare for you to buy that I'll throw in for $100.
Want tires? I'll add tires for all 5 for $200.
$1,000 you get Audi Originals with brand new rubber x's 5 ! (Goodyear Eagle LS2 All Season)

You know I was thinking about those exact rims (only). I wonder how much to ship across the country. . .

Don't be bitter because your Work VS-XX wheels haven't sold in almost 2 months Bunnn..... [:D] [:D] [:D]
A4 S-Line, I would be willing to sell the wheels by themselves - not a problem.
As for shipping, I'll make you a deal:
1. Take all 5 and we'll split the shipping of my choice. (read: Cheap)
2. Take just 4 and you pay for shipping of your choice.
No tax + discounted shipping should make it even with the deal you're looking at on discounttire.com, plus an extra wheel.

Those poor beautiful wheels.....
Simply because no Audi owner is willing to pay for quality and take them off your hands, they are now being sentenced to a life of misery on a Benz.
[:(] [:(] [:(]
People. Won't you dig deep in your heart and consider Bunn's Work VS-XX wheels?
Don't let them rot on a Mercedes. [=(]
p.s. All buyers that make an offer for my Audi wheels are required, before the transaction is finalized, to prove that they are going on an AUDI and nothing else. [:p]

No worries, I'm in no hurry.
Keep in mind when you decide which direction you want to go that I'll negotiate with buyers......discounttire.com won't. [;)]
Thank you for the consideration.

I have a set of those (the RS6 wheels from Replica) and they are nice, if a little heavy. Indistinguishable from oem.
They also make an 18x8.5 in a offset that lets you run a 255/35!
i have a set of OEM RS6 18's sitting in my warehouse... they are ok i guess...

are those 18's?...

17's.
I have the 18" version's w/summer continentals. I guess I could have ordered the car w/all seasons, but now I'd say Quattro w/snows is the way to go.
These 17's are pretty good. Slightly different in shape being an inch smaller. The space between the spokes is different as well and doesn't beg to be cleaned as deeply as the 18's do (how many of you w/the S-Line wheels are cleaning the ENTIRE inner wheel?!?) How can you not?
