Dear Audizine, I need your opinion...

on these wheels.


picture might look a little pixelated. (right click -> view image, to enlarge)





SSR Type F RS 18".
Offset: +35mm
Backspacing: 5.74"
Bolt Pattern: 5-112
Weight: 18.4lbs.

If anyone could tell me where to get silver ones in audi fitment, let me know and I'll jump on it. I was thinking I could paint the outer ring red and turn them into time attacks but I don't know. I only go 18" because there's too many trade-offs with switching to 19". Any thoughts? Opinions? Hate welcome.

Love,
Me

17 or 18 or 19?

[cstarky15]

I like!

[EMAXX]

I like them. I just wish when you saw them on tirerack, you could see the depth of the rims and they didn't look so flat. That would help in my decision so much.

[supamannn99]

18 inchers.

[sangchoii]

no.

[J-jizzle]

Better than stock. But not what I would choose unless the price was really low.

[SLYCAT]

Looks good to me.

[supamannn99]

I hate how you can barely see the rims though.. especially at night, all you can see is darkness. hmmm

[muffinman]

dude, looks hot... even though the first pic makes them look like 15's

silver or gunmetal would be pure sex though.

[Phrost]

I think they're alright looking, but I wouldn't buy them. They might look badass if you want to murder out your car (I'd have to see it to love it) but they're a little bland IMO. But hey, I don't expect everyone to like my wheels so do whatever

[supamannn99]

i like your avy

[Alkemix]

I like the standalone pics of the wheels. From the looks of that tirerack picture, you might want to pump your tires up a little more. 40psi oughta do it. Those would look sweeter on my old honda civic from the looks of the size on the car.

Tirerack had a a real good vision in how to help you see the rims on your car before buying, but fell just short of making it really usable.

[Kuang87]

Get them in silver for pure sex.

[Sanjman]

I like the wheels... I just don't like the tire rack pictures... i think they will look much better in person

[supamannn99]

Get them in silver for pure sex.

I want to but they don't make them in 5x112 fitment!!! Audi fitments ftl

[jimmya4]

tire rack pictures suck they make the rims look tiny. i like the wheel i just dont like the black on all black look. imo i would get a smoked color or an off black or something that isnt just black you know?

[UrKurt]

Great weight. If the price is right, you can always get them painted if you don't like the look..

[Six Speed Turbo]

I like them.

[redlabel81]

To hard to tell on that allroad A4 pic. Hear if someone is up for a little PS on your car. :)

Yes they will, Tanabe USA (located in Socal) can take a custom order for SSR Type F RS's in 5x112. A friend of mine has them in 19x10.5 on his Evo X- VERY SICK!!!

[Sharkfin]

They do look small in the pic. From my experience: 4 sets of wheels from 16"-20" I would say 18s are too small and 19s actually ride fine especially if you are getting SSR's. I think they look good but go 19!

[rayiish]

eh, I voted yes but I think they are alright. It wouldnt be justified if you spent alot for them tho

[RisR32]

I think they look sweet... but go 19'

[CoreyRandmetz]

19's look the best on our car...They look good but definately get a different finish than black. I've seen a few black cars with black rims that were similar and IMO it doesn't look that great.

[outlaw77]

I think thats cause they better on a civic or something. They wouldn't be my first choise.

[B7A4Sport]

^^ Sportec Mono 10's are the sex. Supamann, check out the rims outlaw77 has, they're a very similar look and they belong on an Audi - not to mention, I agree if it doesn't come in 5 x 112, it should go on!

[redhott06]

ssrs are great wheels..go for it.. just get some 18s and dump it haha

[rpmfoundation]

lol didnt i just post SSR's in the "wheels" post yesterday??
they're great, proven - so if you got cash - do it.

[Louis J.]

Why are you interested in these wheels? Is it weight, pattern or color?

Light weight is good if you push the car but for every-day driving, the difference between an 18lb wheel and a 24lb wheel won't be noticed much. The multi-spoke pattern will make it a bitch to clean but then again, the black will hide the brake dust well. As for black wheels, I've personally never been a fan. I like anthracite better than silver but not keen on black wheels, especially on a black car. Here's what my black car looks like with 18" silver spoke wheels...

[brownishwater]

Dont do the red lip. That is too enzoballinesque. If you want the red lip, get TA's.

[A4addict]

Looks good. 18" look awesome slammed!

[Vorsprung]

I personally love these wheels. I would've jumped on these already but unfortunately I don't have the $$
