My new 18" OEM RS4 Style Wheel...different than what I thought, but I like it (more)...
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/9901/107_0771.jpg"></center><p>You'll notice that the the small inner lip goes completely around the inside of each spoke. This is different than the real RS4 wheel and diferent from most of the copies out there (I think)This OEM RS4 style wheel is more closely related to the celebration wheel than it is the real RS4 wheel.
I don't really care either way...I really like everything about these wheels (except the price).
And for those that are curious...they came from my local dealer and were about $575.00 each.
At any rate just a "FYI" post.

I believe to say "OEM style" is kinda an oxymoron. They are either OEM (ordered from Audi) or they
are Replica's in the fashion of the RS4 wheel.
I think the previous poster was confused by your statement.
So you actually got Replica's and not OEM RS4's, correct?
Anyway, they look great. I'm very jealous. I love those wheels on the B6. Very clean sporty look.

Sounds like they are from the dealer (OEM) but are not exactly like the wheels that come on the RS4.
Listed in AOA's collection as "Type RS4 Wheels 8". "Type", "Style" same difference. Either way, they are really expensive and look really good.

Do you have more pics? Like from an angle as well as a whole car shot?
Also, how were they $575 each? I have the Audi catalog next to me an I see them being $743 + center cap, with the 17" version being $462 + center cap.
