Default RS4 Replica's

Okay, all you guys probably heard this question before...but I'll ask again. Who sells the best replica's? I heard Wheel Exchange and then I heard Tires.com. I want to run 235-40-18!

I've found that these wheels come with center caps from the replica's co., but cheap and not like OEM. You can purchase the OE caps for $20 ea. from Audi and modify them to fit. So far Discount Tires has the best fit. I just wanted to make sure they're the best replica's.

Default I think the offset of the wheels from Wheel Exchange are less than 35mm.. ~32mm i think..

also, be careful because I heard some replicas cant fit the OEM centercaps.. (from Clairparts.com for ~$20 each) .. so far I have heard that WheelExchange and Achtuning.com wheels can fit the OEM caps.. I think the ones from Performance alloys cant...

Default oh.. I think 235-40-18s are the best.. I wanted to run 245-35-18, but not too many companies

make them... which makes the tires pretty expensive..

Thanks, I'll look into it. Achtuning.com wheels I haven't look yet. I ordered the caps from Clairparts.com already. I'm looking for the best fit.

Default I just learned this from another board, most of the wheels will take the oem center cap but..

they are 18x8. Performancealloys.com will not accept the oem center cap, but they are available in 18x8.5, something to consider...
