    Wheels from for 18x8 S4 snow tires

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Anyone with some suggestions for wheel brands for snow tires for a 2015 S4 with standard 19 Peelers.

    Looking to go 18x8. Its a short season here in Oregon, but I do a great deal of snow driving and even more ice driving, so narrower is better.

    I'm interested in simple same lugs, no spacers, same offset, good quality wheels.

    Suggestions, thoughts, raucous laughter?

    cheapest is probably alzor from ECS. lots of options, but no 8", most are 8.5 and some 9.5. VMR was doing a sale on wheel and tire packages for winters. Shoot Tracy a line (search for VMR winter and should find his thread). I got a set from him and am very pleased with the wheels. Will post my own thread in a few days

    oemwheelsplus.com has a lot of pretty cheap 18x8 options. I'm "running" these gunmetal Peeler reps with Hakkas for winter.

    Tirerack is now selling 18 Titanium reps!! Perfect snow boots - http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Wheel...dClar=Prestige -

    awe. looks like they are sold out.

    I'm running these which I like with an 35 ET which is basically same as OEM (I'm running 12mm spacers to flush them out) - http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Wheel...dClar=Prestige

    I ordered a mounted/balanced 18x8" set from TireRack (Enkei EKM3/Blizzak WS80s) shipped for ~$1.5k, and they have lots of well-priced options. ECS has some nice wheels but you still have to get the tires mounted/balanced somewhere and they only ship to your home address.

    I went et45 on the Enkeis; I did not want anything close to flush since that would throw more snow/salt all over the car.

    I went with the VMR wheel and tire package. Easy, affordable, and a great combo.

    I got these cheap off tire rack. They're certainly different from the typical wheels we put on our cars (I have AG M510s for summer lol). Advanti Racing 15th Anniversary.

    I am looking at these two from ECS.

    Style 627
    Style 628

    The 628s are Titanium style. I am thinking of going with an alternate look ala the 627s. Any opinions?
    Both happen to be on sale, but not as good as prior years' deals. Shipping is on top of that.

    These are 18x8 ET 45, which is closer to the OEM spec of 18x8 ET47 than the alternate offset versions (ET35) of these same wheels.

    Jason, will there be better deals later this week? I am ready to pull the trigger.
