...just browsing over the weekend, and noticed that the RS-GT showed up on the 18" filter on the 4.2. In the past, only the 19" version showed up.

Hmmmmmm...

Default Definitely a recent addition, as you know I had one of the few "One-offs"

that BBS had made for that application.

I see they are now carrying the LM's too.

But some price increase on the 19" size...$680 on the full set.

Default i noticed when i spent all of 2 weeks ago cringing over buying 18x8.5's for 1500$. =(

and then i realized 18x8 fits perfect on hp2's, and 8.5 requires 8mm spacers =(

glad i didnt buy them!

Are you considering selling a set from basement inventory? Or the Volks?

Default Not at the moment. Basement inventory...

...reduced to the winter setup (stock 5-spoke forged 4.2 sport wheels) and the setup on the car now (Volks). RS6 wheels were sold over a month ago to a local A6 owner.
