    [RS4 B5] Soft rimms original

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I happend to be the luckyest person on the planet for having the Soft original RS4 B5 rimms.

    When i bought the car, the rimms where fixed, coated and all, but within 6 months already 'bent' for proberly taking a small bump. One of the left rear rimms took a nasty bent / egg and i'm wondering what todo with these rimms.

    Since they are 'soft' ones, i could fix them but be assured as well that within 6 monts they will go bent again. Is there a way to fix these for good or am i just having some bad luck?



    notice the 'deformed' rimm on the right:



    Since i've replaced the rimms with different ones, i've tried to sell them, but the moment people notice "soft" it's just instant no-go. I hardly could get 200 euro out of these including tires. I dont want to buy or use imitation since most of that is garbage.

    Any suggestions?

    Go to the dealer and say that the rims for this car were never replaced under the original campaign to replace those. The worst they say is no.

    Otherwise, aftermarket rims are just fine for those.
