Default Enkei Rs7 Wheel hit or skip?
$139/wheel and 17.5 lbs.

I'm thinking either silver or bronze, on a silver Avant. Hit or Skip?

Or

I've noticed that Enkei is not very popular on here, but I haven't heard anything other then people thinking that they're too ricy and have no place on an Audi.

Thanks-
Richard

They have too many holes in them for my taste.

Default i hate extra bolt holes... just shows the rims were made for mass market.. not vehicle specific
IIRC regieraudi ran some enkei's for a bit. AND i heard that the old privat sekts i had on my 2.8L were from an off shoot of enkei. Overall they look good but quality is sub par. I'd save the money.

hit, bronze would look cool, but it might get boring fast, silver's a safe color.
