Which wheels?

[seanentrust]

Tires are already at the shop so I just need to decide on rims. I wanted peelers forever but thinking about cleaning them stresses me out so I'm down to these 2. They are 19x8.5 in either et38 or et25. I really want to run the et25 because I really don't want them to be sunken in. Bad idea?

I like the bottom ones better. The top ones look like stock GM wheels.

bottom but i'd go with the et38, the 25 might be too aggressive especially if you're lowered, you can always get small spacers to push them out but 38 should be pretty flush

Bottom one (RS6 wheel) is a newer style IMO and agree to start at an ET38.

The top wheel was my favorite up until maybe the last six months.

bottom!!! but im bias lol. oem wheel specs are 20x9 et37 for the s7. s6 would be 20x8.5 et45. im running the s7 wheel and fitment is perfect but im slammed and do rub when i hit big dips front and back.

I've seen the top ones on C6es and they look "heavy." My vote is for the bottom ones (or Peelers, which I also love and am looking for).
Check out these Peeler replicas on sale at ECS (I have no affiliation with them, btw):

If you don't mind 45mm backspacing, these are even cheaper:

Peelers were my first choice but I'm kinda falling out of love with them i think.

What size tires do you have? I would do ET25 for sure, you won't rub unless you have really wide tires.

Ended up going with these in 19x8.5 et38 255/35/19 tires

Those where high on my list when I was looking. They will look great on the car. I think someone is also selling a set of those in the classified section

love the new wheels! lowering it soon!

Going back to your original point, cleaning...

I have the top on our A4 and peelers on our A6, and I can't say I spend anymore or less time on either wheel to clean.

That said, as a result of good advice on here, I'm running ceramic pads on the A6 so that probably makes it easier.

I like both of your choices.
