    I've seen those TR's or a variation at track events before on some S4's. Don't have first hand experience though. Look good.

    On the s4wheelgallery there is a silver s4 with them on. IMO they look very similar to OZ SL's.

    I like them as well, did a bit of research a few months back and found that there were a bunch of posts about them in Lotus and MR2 forums. On those cars they seemed to be liked but keep in mind that our Audi's weigh a lot more so YMMV.

    Ended up with a set of used, but next to new, OZ UL's for half the price, but I still really like the TR1's

    Cheers,

    Not sure if this is the case, when they first came out I talked to the Tire Rack about them and they did not know much about the wheel. I would think that if you were designing a wheel to put your name on you would have all the particulars. Another reason I do not think they are Tire Rack branded wheels is the fact that these wheel are very popular in europe with the Lotus crowd and I do not believe that the Tire Rack has any facilities in europe.
