i know these are cheap rims on my s4, but how do they look?

**nimski62** · 04-30-2008 11:37 AM

I hate the stock rims, and I had these off my b6 with fairly new tires. I just slapped these on!

**WinterRunner** · 04-30-2008 11:38 AM

Not bad at all!

**BGEDWN** · 04-30-2008 11:56 AM

What he said.

**nimski62** · 04-30-2008 12:03 PM

Audi symbol too!

**pyro** · 04-30-2008 12:05 PM

Well i mean theyre 19" rims with 235/35s.. if i went any bigger i'd throw off the speedo. I think a drop is neccesary to set the look off.

If anyone wants to trade 5 stock 18" s4 rims for coils, that would be awesome.

**nealRlett** · 04-30-2008 12:29 PM

I don't mind the stock rims but I like these too. Good idea. I am more jealous over the fact that you can wash your car inside your garage!

**SuperAvant** · 04-30-2008 12:34 PM

What are they?

Yes I think I would hate not having a place to tool around and wash my car.

I think they are ADR M-classics. 19"

**ngng** · 04-30-2008 12:51 PM

looks good man. you dont have to buy BBS' or forged wheels to have nice looking wheels :)

They look good. I have rather cheap wheels on my car as well but I get more compliments than I know what to do with...

**Addicted2Bass** · 04-30-2008 03:39 PM

Looks pretty good, the only down side is that they're heavy.

**FastB7S4** · 04-30-2008 04:25 PM

Looks good. I like how the Audi caps fit on there.

**yakendo** · 04-30-2008 05:49 PM

I think those wheels look great!

**bklein8888** · 04-30-2008 06:07 PM

I really like them...some people put some disgusting (foose) wheels on S4's

**Corrado79** · 04-30-2008 08:22 PM

Looks fine man. Cheap wheels FTW. You're better off spending the money on your tires anyway.

And if you live where the roads are shitty like me - its costs a 1/4 of the amount to replace.

**91gl** · 05-01-2008 08:28 AM

nice

**colonelburke** · 05-01-2008 08:33 AM

Look good to me.

**blur510** · 05-01-2008 09:58 AM

I like it its nice... btw lesson learned today cheap doesnt always mean ugly...

**FastB7S4** · 05-01-2008 10:19 AM

People who bash cheap wheels are usually wheel snobs who insist it should be BBS, Champions, Forged, etc. Not everyone can afford $1k per wheel, though.

Exactly.. and IMO i rather go through 2 sets of these 550$ for (4) rims than EVER damage a 1k (1) rim.. Id never forgivemyself.

**b00st** · 05-01-2008 01:45 PM

and to me...its seems inevitable....you will damage your rims. on my A4 i tried so hard to avoid everything....i still got scratches....pissed me off. cheap FTW...as long as they aren't the kind that cracks or bends easily.

for my B6S4...i'm looking for lightweight rims...which look good for the car....which is not as easily found. unless i'm looking at $1k+ rims. i guess noone can make a semi-decent lightweight rim, that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

I'm with you! If I could find decent lightweight wheels (23lbs or less), for $2,000, I’d buy them. Everything I like that are lightweight and strong are $1,000 a piece. And it’s not just the initial cost, it’s also the fact that I’ll eventually bend or scratch one and have to repair or replace one or more (ugh). You’ve gotta pay to play!

**jcg05c** · 05-01-2008 02:40 PM

A couple guys around here have those wheels on there b6 they look nice. Pay to play haha wow 5k rims just to drive around on the street which does nothing for how much they are priced other than saying LOOK I HAVE THESE WHEELS haha

I like those.

Definitely lightweight is the way to go.

How about OZ UL's ? 21bs in 19x8, cost less than $500. each and are known to be quite strong.

BTW, mine are forged and cost considerably less than $1,000. each ...

**FastB7S4** · 05-01-2008 06:47 PM

Agree with OZ UL's. Volks are nice, but aren't they still pretty pricey?

**maybachgt** · 05-01-2008 06:55 PM

Those look TERRRIBBBLEE!!!!! The only wheels you can ever put on your car are BBS or HRE. You get what you pay for DUH!!!

j.k I completely agree with everyone here these wheels look great and they look even better considering the price. IMO HREs and other forged companies all have the exact same wheels and its just marketing to see who will sell more. There are many wonderful wheels out there and I think you found a gem. I think it is ridiculous to spend anything over 1k per wheel and even 1k is insane. My good friend has 20" HREs on his 550. They run about 1800 per wheel and he has bought 7 so far. To top that off he insists Pirellis are the best tire and they run him about 450 per tire. He has bought 8 of those.

I give you two thumbs way up!!

Thank you!!.. i have General Exclaim tires, and let me tell you... they are GREAT. my old set of Generals had 30K on them before they started making road noise or vibrating.. these are aweomse. i have 900 in wheels and tires. I did bend a rim in Chicago, and i thought i broke it when i hit.. but when i got out it was a slight bend in the lip... and best part is, wheels still drive the same.. thank God.. that was a HUGE pot hole, and I hit many before that so these rims are pretty strong.

**Bigswede** · 05-02-2008 03:58 AM

Looks real good bro'!!!

**jcg05c** · 05-02-2008 07:03 AM

Here ya go to the Op. My buddy here has these wheels on his car staggared. Now please tell me they dont look just as good as some expensive dpe/hre stuff

**Lugi20** · 05-02-2008 08:03 AM

^^ That car looks very nice!!

**MOFSTEEL** · 05-02-2008 08:05 AM

Too busy.

**akaEsCo01** · 05-02-2008 08:29 AM

The wheels are fine, I don't care that they are cheap as long as you get teh look you want. My wheels were pretty expensive, but a custom wheel was the only way I could get the look I want. Not may people sell 20" 5x112 staggered wheels with a decent sized lip and not have the rear 10" wide.

**Maverick** · 05-02-2008 08:40 AM

not bad, but you need spacers

Best deal are the Neuspeed forged wheels (RS-series). I just got a set of RS-10's and I am in love. They're around $500/wheel, which is half the usual price for forged wheels, and the 19x8.5's are 19.9 lbs each. Lighter than BBS, champion, et al.
