Default WWAWD? Actual 18" RS4 wheels from a guy in Auckland in the classifieds. Hit or Skip? No recourse
really, if he gyps me, since he's 1/2 way around the world. What do you guys think? Does anyone know how much the stockers weigh? More or less than the ones from VM?

Default IIRC the offset isn't intended for stock fender width...
but I could be wrong...

Either way reps are the way to go IMO.

Default Sweet- thanks for the replies. I hate to be a bandwagoner, but I think they look good on our cars.
I'll just stick with the VMs.
