A4 on Brabus wheels

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/19254/brabus.jpg"></center><p>A little off the mark since Brabus is a Benz tuner but the wheels look pretty sweet.

I'm not really that sold on the difference of wheel weights...

maybe if you track your car alot it makes a bigger difference. I just went from a 29lb wheel to a 15lb wheel (in the same 17x8 size), and could not really tell any difference, especially during aggressive cornering.

what... an extra 50lbs? probably not. I got 150lbs of stereo in my trunk.

the argument is that the lighter wheel = less unsprung weight = less work for the suspension = better handling. I haven't noticed.

It'll affect your handling also......

due to the increase in unsprung weight. The wheels/tires/brakes etc are considered unsprung weight, and the more of it you have the harder it is for the suspension to control everything and do its job.
