    Thoughts on wheels for my S6

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    With most cars I pickup, one of the first modifications I go with is wheels. It makes the car more mine and stand out. With the S6 I am having a tough time deciding what I want. Today is Black Friday and there are a ton of deals floating around so if I am going to do this today would be the day. Any thoughts?
    I do have the factory 20s so another thought for now is to just go with spacers and move on to other mods for now.

    I had planned on keeping them but if they are worth selling I may consider that too. Here is an image of them.

    Somewhere around here, probably within the first couple of pages, is a "show us your wheels" post. Go take a look at that and see if anything catches your eye. Also take a look at the "what did you do to your C7 today" and "random pic of your C7" posts for ideas. You have a shit ton of options. From pricey stuff like HRE, BC Forged, ADV, etc., to budget friendly manufacturers like Avant Garde and VMR.

    I have 20" 843R and a 21" 797RS sets of HRE wheels in the classifieds. I also have a set of HRE P93L wheels coming off my brothers A7 if you like the full face mono block look.

    Thanks everyone for the info.

    As for what I am looking for, I am not 100% sure. This is because I found out I cannot go with a concave setup like I had wanted due to the specs on the S6. Now I am back to finding another wheel I would like. I do like the HRE FF01, the AG M590, and the Vossen CV4 in matte graphite.
    With the car being Ibis white, I am leaning towards a matte gunmetal finish or even something bolder like a bronze or even a crazy blue. I thought about being different with a white car. I already own an Alpine 1999 E36 M3 with BBS CHs in a custom Porsche Seal Gray finish. Two totally different cars but it wouldn't be bad to have a different look.

    Honestly it depends of the wheel. I don't want to spend $10k but I'm also not working off a $1000 budget.

    Well shoot me a PM with what you are looking to spend? I actually have a couple sets of HRE's and possibly a third set you may be interested in. I'm a bit flexible on the 21's since the lips need the rash repaired. Although that may not be the case for long because I'm about to send them out for repair.

    21x9.5 not sure the exact offset as HRE never want's to release that info. They are jerks about that, spend $10K on a set of wheels and they treat you like a peasant when you ask them about specs and offsets! They are built to fit S6/7/8 is all I know with out calling in with the serial numbers.
