Are those 18s or 19s? What kind of tires do you have and how much did you get the whole package for?

I have the same setup and love the look of it. The only thing i'm having an issue with is the vibration.

Default Yup! Had mine changed...

...last week, we already got a little taste of winter and traction became nonexistant. Are your rims 18 or 19s?

Default i bought the wheels that are on my A6 avant from them because i wanted gunmetal finish...

(they're in my picture poster). i thought that it was worth the chance that they'd be of reasonable quality because they offered the gunmetal finish "right out of the box", and they included the OEM center caps. they came quickly, look great, balanced out exactly, and the finish is still like new (as is the integrity) after 24K miles in central PA where the roads are B+ at best. i'd buy from them again. good luck and keep us posted. rob.
