Default Italian Replicas at Discount Tire. Saw them yesterday and they look nice...

So nice I have a new set on the way.

RS4 Replica-
18x8.5 et35 both 5x112 & 5x100 bolt patterns
about $120 each

RS6 Reps-
18x8.5 et30 and et45
About $125 each

B7 RS4 Reps-
18x8 et35
About $135 each

I'm getting rid of the Enkei's so needed a set of track wheels. So..... back to RS6 Reps, just like I started with.

The assistant manager at the store I like to use drives both an A6 and a TT, and does a great job taking care of all the local Audi folks. He has all three styles in stock ( and on his cars too) so can take care of anyone. Even has one set of the RS4 wheels mounted with 245.45-18 Dunlop M3 snows in the showroom. He'll drop ship wheels from one of his warehouses if someone wanted wheels. And I'd guess that the shipping could be negotiated in?

Anyway, my RS6 Reps will be in next week. Anyone want some Enkeis?

Default Are they made by AT Italia? They were the only aftermarkets I could find in '02.

The AT Italia have worked well for me; a well-made wheel.

Default No, these are Replicas made in an Italian foundry. But I do have a set of ATItalia

wheels too. They are the correct et20 18" wheels for the allroad. Still in the boxes in my basement waiting for me to mount my IceBears for the winter. Never enough time.

Default Contact info....

Talk to Matt at the Discount store in Naperville, IL. He goes by Matt_DTC...TT on the Chicago forum. (630)922-5877. He's a big supporter of the ACCCC (Audi Car Club Chicagoland Chapter) and a sponsor of some of our events.

You'll still need spacers, but Discount like TireRack, doesn't sell spacers so you'll need to source elsewhere.

Default I have my credit card in hand! Can you help me?

I'd like to get a set of the 18" B7 RS4 reps with Dunlop SP Wintersport 3D's in 225/40VR-18 for my S4.

Any chance you can either forward the contact info?

Thanks,

Erik

Default Absloutely, see contact info just below.

Don't talk to anyone but Matt though. He's the Audi guru, and will take care of you. Should be working today until 5pm central time.
