R8 wheels seem easier to curb. Don't know if a tire w/ rim protector would be enough to save you.

The BBS LM F-1 is one of my favourite wheels. Get it in 19".

Default Here's some B7 A4s on Hartmann HR8 wheels (13% off on Friday the 13th!)

Hartmann HR8 wheels are higher quality and therefore cost more to manufacture than those cheap Chinese wheels that everyone else carries, the same reason that an Audi costs more than a Kia.<ul><li><a href="http://shop.achtuning.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&amp;Category=615">ht tp://shop.achtuning.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&amp;Category=615</a</li></ul>

I was in doubt if R8 disaing wheels looks great on the white A4 but I see that it looks very nice
The problem with hartmann wheels is that I'm living in Lithuania so it cost for me a lot download price and custom duties
