    decisions, decisions

    Since my quest for loose couch change nears its completion... I figured I'd pick a set of wheels for the S.
    I'm a huge fan of Raderwerks, so I've narrowed it down to these three. All of the chrome trim will be blackened out and the door blades are going flat black.
    Suspension will be dropping it before the wheels as well. And yes, the 'flaps will be taken off too
    Input is welcomed.

    Re: decisions, decisions

    I like the 2nd one. Always been a fan of mesh on Euros.

    Of those options, that'd be what I'd go with too.

    The 1st and 3rd look too much like B7 A4 S-line wheels IMO.

    Actually, they look like the b7 a4 sport wheels. S-line wheels are RS6 style.

    Must be different for the US market - in Australia the B7 S-lines come standard with wheels like that.

    Re: decisions, decisions

    Hate to shake it up. But I like the 1st ones...clean design and just enough difference from the stock style that matches it...But what is the Weight difference?

    Re: decisions, decisions

    Don't like the 2nd because the center sticks out more than the ends.

    The first and third only have 5 spokes. Audi's look best with 7 or 8.

    Re: decisions, decisions

    Of those I would have to go with number twee (Dutch).


    But at that price point , I think I'd seriously consider the VMR v710 (no optional finishes though ).

    Yes they've been getting a lot of attention here lately, but what's the chances of you actually seeing them on another car in your area?

    or the v715 or the v714

    These are the kinds of decisions one likes to have to make though huh? Stay safe out there, sneak into Pakistan, nail that bastard already and get back here!
