Default Well guys, looks like Wheel Exchange has new RS4 REPS
Nathan's words.

"James,
The RS4 wheels came in. The cast has changed a little and the color has changed a little (its a little darker). The new 18 inch wheels that came in are 18x8.5 and 35mm offset. The ones we had before is 18x8 with a 30mm offset. The 5mm more offset will make up the .5 inch width difference. I have included a picture of the wheel. I like the center cap much better in this wheel."

Default Nice looking wheel, but it's quite a bit different than an RS4 type wheel now...
The shape of the spokes has changed considerably, as has the color. I like 'em, though...

I, too, like those - however it is different than the RS4s - any change in price?

Default I don't like it... looks more like a Pro-Drive wheel.
In terms of the center caps... I would go OEM... both those caps look like ***.

I have the 19's, and they look fantastic. I'm one picky ****, and I'm EXTREMELY happy with the quality of my new wheels.

Here is a pic of a 19" with the OEM center cap:
