    What do you guys think?

    I've been driving around on Auchtuning B5 RS4 reps (19"). They are heavy (I bet with rubber it's over 60lbs a corner) and one of them is bent (flat spot) which cannot be completely balanced out.

    They fit the lines of my Avant really well, but the negatives are too great.

    I've got $2000-2500 for new rims + rubber right now.

    I'm looking for a strong, light weight 18x8 et35 rims. I'm willing to buy used, but haven't seen anything that fits the bill (outside the rare set of RGR's that sell as soon as the show up).

    I'm looking at these. Are they strong enough for the weight of the S4?

    What are your thoughts?

    Search the forums for those wheels, there are a lot of posts and discussions regarding them.

    That being said, I have the UL's in silver and I'm very happy with them.

    AHHH, the wheel question. So you have some reps that are bent? Sounds like the same story I've heard from many people. I really like those 18" R8 reps. I would use them for winter only, but I keep hearing that reps are just a no no. If you are on a small budget, i would say to get the OZ or save up for some BBS.

    Neuspeed RS10's, I got them and am very happy with them. 19's are 19lbs ea. I went over this for 4 mos looking for a deal, the right wheel, right look etc and within reason. For me they look good, improve performance and were about 1/2 the price of most of the other wheels that I was considering.
