Default Anyone recognize this wheel?

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/16463/picture_038.jpg"></center><p>I need to know what kind of wheel it is and size spacer to get for them. I just tried to put them on and noticed that it barely scrapes the corner of the front caliper ): I am not sure what brand this is, but I do know It is from Tire Rack and it is an 18X8 wheel. The original owner of the car said that his Audidealer ordered this set of winter wheel and tires for him when he purchased the car, but he never got a chance to put them on. The tires were new and the stickers were still on them. I saw someone post that an 18x8 would need a 25mm spacer. Is this correct? where can I get one ASAP?

Thanks in advance

Default Looks like the Sport Tuning Glide wheel...

"The Sport Tuning line, exclusive to Tire Rack, offers contemporary designs and lasting quality. An excellent value, Sport Tuning wheels are an exceptional choice for many popular vehicles."

No idea on the spacers, sorry.<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/sport_tuning/sport_tuning.jsp">Sport Tuning Wheels</a></li></ul>

Default Close, it actually is "Sport Tuning". Tire Rack also sells "Sport Edition" wheels...

<center><img src="http://www.tirerack.com/images/wheels/sport_tuning/swap/sporttun_glide_bs_ci3_l.jpg"></center><p>...but this one clearly is a "Sport Tuning" wheel based on the center cap and by matching it up to the Sport Tuning Glide wheel photo on Tire Rack's site.
