Check Tirerack (B7S4).. If it was BBS, I would have ordered it already.......<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/wheel/msgs/84865.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/wheel/msgs/84865.phtml</a></li></ul>

Default Re: what size and how much are they?

18 X 8.5 w/ +35 offset :
$209 + $20 for the center cap... (Check Tirerack under 2006 B7 S4)

3PC made in Japan by SSR/SSW.. Center is Cast but the lips are anodized... Which means you have to be careful with wheel cleaner that contains the hydroxide... (such as oven cleaner).. But, it is very easy to refinish and polish @ home.... Better so then peeled clear coat on common wheels...

Default Personally, I have NEVER liked JDM rims on my Euros (3x BMW, 3x Audi, 2x VW)...

... JDM wheels belong on JDM cars. For example, I would never run my 19-inch WORK Euroline DH wheels with 3.75" lip from my Nissan 180SX on my A4. HECK NO!!!

Default I got ya, the German brands do fit better on Audi... For track use, I might have to take advantage

of sale.......... They are really well built rims..... I hope it fits B7 A4 without an issue... Personally, OZ ultraleggra is my other option but I know it get bent easily... I've done it many times in the past....

Default Those look like Volk GT-C wheels

Almost got some for my NSX but didn't like the look of them. The only Volk wheels that I've seen on an Audi are the CE-28 or LE-28 wheels on a B6 body. The Work Emotion wheels look pretty good on the B7 body, as somebody did it already.
