Default Anybody have the 5 spoke alloys for sale?

All this talk about winter wheels and I wouldn't mind a set of the stock A8 5 spoke wheels.

I do have my track wheels and tires (which have a little life left) that I would be more than willing to make in trade. But don't need to.

I don't know if I'll ever track the S8.

These are the wheels, they have no curb rash, have 265's on them, but have brake dust that doesn't really come off.

Default I have my stock 5 spokes from the 97

Let me know, these are 16", with tires. I have 20" now, so don't really want the stock 5 spokes.

That's a good looking wheel. Are those 18s?

Default Might have a set available soon

I am selling the 99 A8 and picking up the 2003 S8 this weekend. I have two sets of the forged wheels. The ones on the car have the Goodyear F1's and the other Michelin Alpin Sports. Both in good shape. Will you be using these on your S8 as winter's? Of course you could buy the A8 for 5000.00 CAD and have all the wheels

Default Given any thought about using the B5 S4 wheels....

I know that they are only 7.5 wide and I am not 100% sure that they would work (i.e. offset) but you could retain somewhat of the "s" look.

I use them in as winter wheels, they work great. Plus you can get them cheap.
