Rolling extortion
is it just me or is the A!Avantgarde waaaaay overpriced for a simple, one-piece cast painted six-spoke wheel?? They're great looking (and I want them), but not for $450-$500 each.

Get Borbet Type Cs instead...

Appreciate the photo, but...
that wheel has been out at least 5 years (maybe longer) and it just doesn't look as good. Also considering the OZ F1s, but the Tire Rack doesn't list it as being available for '00 A4s. What to do...

If you can't find a suitable alternative, then the A! price is indeed "fair"

Is a Porsche 911 Turbo *really* worth $100K+?!
Save up for what you really want! Or make a compromise.
Maybe look in the classifieds for used set.<p><a href="http://registry.audiworld.com/audi/registry/details.asp?car=161"</a><img SRC="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/AudiWorldPics/2000/a4registrydl.jpg" BORDER=0></a>

SOS...looking for....
a 6-spoke painted wheel with a really strong look with smooth lines. If anyone has pics of their favorites I'd love to see them. Not really interested in split or thin spokes though. THANKS!
