Default Ordering 18" S4 Premium Plus wheels (for winter)

I'm trying to figure out the best way to order a second set of premium plus wheels for snow tires. Does anyone carry the wheels, or just Audi?

I'm not sure why the 18" wheels in the winter package are different. The S5 wheels look the same, but I'm not sure if they are in fact going to fit.

I'd recommend going with Tire Rack to get a winter set - Audi's prices are astronomical....

Yeah. I'm a big fan of Tire Rack. they did me fine on my 2000 S4 winter wheels and tires, but I'm not really wowed by any of the wheels they have. I like the stock premium plus wheels. I must be the only one ;-) Just trying to find online if anyone can order them or has the part number...

Have you tried the AOA web site? Under "Special Offers" they have a selection of "Winter Wheel and Tire Packages", including the 5 spoke 18" wheel for the S4. I'm not sure if that is the wheel you had in mind. As was said earlier in this thread - they are pricey.

Here's a bunch of Audi clone wheels. http://www.oewheelsllc.com/Audi-Whee...orLanding/true

I still have a set of B8 S4 OEM 18" premium plus wheels and tires with 120 miles on them if you are interested.

For what it is worth- I went with OZ Alleggerita HLT in Anthracite +48mm offset. Snows are Michelin PA3 in 235/45/18. I liked the color/design of the wheels with my Deep Sea Blue.
I spent the extra bucks on wheels for the lower weight and shot peening prior to coating. Hopefully the extra expense will be worth it.
As for tires I like the slightly taller 45 V 40 series. Pot holes in the midwest are a killer in the spring.

Order before the tires you want are gone. Tire Rack will not reorder until next year on some Brand/size/type
