    Re: Poll: titanium 18's or R8 replicas

    I'd keep the 17s for winter if you want two different sets, and then I vote for the 18" titaniums. I am a fan of 19s and 20s though, its up to you I just don't like the r8 rep.

    Re: Poll: titanium 18's or R8 replicas

    Now that i actually see the r8 reps on the a4 i think that either way it would look SICK. Since my car came with the Ti's i think im just going to keep it that way and save the money for other mods.

    Re: Poll: titanium 18's or R8 replicas

    First post on the boards!

    Thought I had to pitch in with my 2 cents!

    Was in the position that I needed new summers for this season and ended up with the R8 19's and since my car is Dolphin I thought you might wanted to see them. They weren't my first choice but I couldn't pass on the deal.

    They make for the 'fat O.E.M. look' that I like and they are not very common, at least not around here. Only complaint is that they actually look a little small to be 19's when they are on the B7.



    The lowering kit is on it's way and the tint have been mounted since the photo was taken.

    Regards
    Johan

    From one Dolphin gray to another, Gunmetal looks awesome on dg. Also with that aside, titanium pkge wheels are amazing too but good luck getting your hands on a set if you dont have them already.

    Titanium 18's from what you have on the poll, but I like the 19 RS4 reps to be honest. My second choice would be the Titaniums.

    I didn't know they offered the Titanium Package wheels in silver. Is that a Euro Option because I haven't seen that here in the states.

    Does someone make a silver/hyper silver version of the titanium package wheel? I saw that image above on the black A4, but Ive never seen them being sold anywhere.

    imo the r8 wheel belongs on the r8... it does look nice on the a4 but the tit package wheels just fit better with the lines of the car

    Re: Poll: titanium 18's or R8 replicas

    The r8s also come in different finishes:



    I like these a lot, but do they look too open (too much visable behind/between them) as 19"s on a B7? Maybe getting 18s would actually look better than the 19's.

    These are 19s on a black b7, which I think looks pretty good.

    And a far away pic of some nice silver DTM rims.



    A real pain in the neck to clean tho!
    So if its dirty where you live maybe gunmetal is a better color, Im considering doing that later on.

    I've only seen R8's look good on cars that are lowered.
    In the above pic it looks pretty good!

    If you get your brake calipers painted, then it would look very nice with 19s.

    Those gunmetal r8s are the business... I might have to come up. These or the new VMR wheels have me thinking right now.

    Personally I like titaniums, but I wouldn't mind putting on R8 reps or other 5-6 spoke wheels if I had nice aftermarket brakes to show off.

    It would definitely look better with nice brake kit, but I like the simplicity of the silver interor parts as well. They just look pretty bad ass on that black B7.

    I actually Photoshoped them onto my black B7 in another thread to get people's opinion, if you want to check it out:

    Yeah - you could choose which wheels you want & these are on the DTM, so I guess the guy that bought the car from new paid the extra for them...
