RS6 17" replica's in black chrome the car has the 17" wheel option, stock ride height with no mods.......My car.

Taken 2011 and it still looks the same, in the fall the stock flat 5's with winter tires go on, the garage queen might see 4k a year of driving.

I've always been a fan of th RS6 5-spoke wheels. I had Hartmann replicas on my car for awhile in 18" size-you can see them in my sig. They looked great but the wheels themselves were absolute crap. I bent about 5 of them and got so frustrated I went back to the 17" Fat Fives and never looked back.

The 4.2 will be going up for sale soon as I've got a '15 3.0T on the way...I'll miss those Fat Fives and flared fenders!

I considered Hartmann's but went the Ebay/OE Wheels route, so far after five seasons they have been straight and true with the stock 17" tire size.

Smart move. I've never come close to bending one of the fat fives-strong and good-looking wheel.

CobraJones, you check into OEWheels for some rim options I'm sure you can find some good prices.
