You'll have to scour the classifieds here or in AZ and pray that someone has a set for sale!! Rotiform also has something similar (though not the same) but with a more aggressive concavity.

Being in your scenario I would suggest buying a set of rims that you really like and not necessarily that come from Audi. You'd be looking at making your car unique.

I have the scuba blue and went with gunmetal 18s for the winter in y shape

Really like how they look on mine. Also saw a b9 a4 with something like this:

Now there are a lot of b9 A4's in Toronto. Thankfully not many in scuba blue, and even less with the RS rims that come w/ the S-Line in Canada. Phew.

Thanks for the links. I was looking through several sites and I didn't see anything that I liked and the Audi 19" 10 V Spokes grew on me.....they look amazing with the Red Tango color......However, I also have a scuba blue A4 coming and I thought those would also look great.

So for $800 for wheels and tires included, I didn't realize the bargain, especially when 4 new tires will cost close to $1,000. So now I have to stay with what I have or pay more out of pocket to get something that I like.....

I do like the Konigs you listed, just need to see how much they are gonna cost. BTW, what is the proper PCD size and Offset....I only ask because I have seen different answers for the offset (seen 32, 35, and 45 given)

Sadly, these Konig RennForm Rims don't come in a ET40 offset.

If I am correct, the bolt pattern for the 2017 A4 is 5x112. So in that bolt pattern, the offset is either 32 or 45 for both the 18x8 and 19x8.5.


I will admit I am clueless and do not know what impact the difference in offset would make and which of the 2 would be the better option. Of course that is assuming that it would even be OK to go with different offsets.


The other question I have is about weight. These Konigs are rather light coming in both under 19LBs. In my search for wheels, I have seen some as heavy as 28lbs. Aside of having to support the weight of the car and all of it's passengers and also being able to stand up to everything the roads have to offer. Is there a weight range I want to stay in and weights I want to avoid.

I don't have much experience on this to answer your question.

If you go with 19x8.5 then the 32 offset would be perfect (IMO). They would stick out a bit more than OEM which would look slightly more aggressive.

There are a bunch of calculators out there that will help you figure out whether or not a particular wheel/tire setup will fit. Here are a couple I use:

These are great tools. Be carful. Although using an offset that is less then recommended will give you a better aesthetic look, it will also have negative effects on handling (Roll steer, pull while driving in ruts etc....)

Thanks for the info....still learning, so have many other questions.....
the ET 32 essentially pushes the wheel out 8MM, but then also puts a tilt on it, causing the positive scrub radius, which I would then assumes creates uneven wear on the tires, but more importantly, what would be the impact on the ride handling.....

Nuttz4Sports

Been looking for days and I am finding that it's tough to find wheels that are 5x112 and et40.....though I have learned that I could probably go down to et35 and still be ok with the scrub radius. I just don't want to go past 5mm positive....not sure the effect it will have on the wear of the tires.


I do like these, but they only offer them in 18s or 20s.....but I am not sure I want to go from 18s to 18s

I spend just about every waking minute looking at new wheels and just can't make a decision. I find one with the right specs, but the color is wrong. I find one that looks amazing but the offset isn't right. I was trying to buy the wheels and tires mounted and balanced as a package, but the place that carries the wheel I want doesn't carry the tire or vice versa. At this point it's paralysis by analysis.
