What do you think of these wheels?
 
<center><img src="http://www.cecwheels.com/tech_notes/images/ant_181_18x.jpg"></center><p>I am looking for rims for my 1 week old Audi. So far, these are the best I found. I also Like the Momo Arrows, but every one thinks they are too old and heavy. Please tell me what you would get for your car if money weren't really an object.

Thanks

money no object?? Fikse, HRE, Forgeline have my vote (light weight and d$%@ good looking)

Kevin B 04-15-2001 12:00 PM

Not bad. Anteras tend to be heavy and $$; I'd go for Fikses..
 
I had some Antera 121s on my 300Z and they were tanks. I just switched to some lighter wheels and the car is noticibly faster. I think they're more for looks.

I think "Krull".

Driver With No Name 04-15-2001 12:05 PM

How much do Fikses rims go for?

jyoteen 04-15-2001 12:19 PM

Mine were $700 wheel, plus the cost of the tire ($250). For four, comes out to hair over $1K/corner

Damon 04-15-2001 12:25 PM

I think.. not.

Shredster 04-15-2001 01:11 PM

The word "gaudy" comes to mind.

S4carl 04-15-2001 01:19 PM

And Kinesis!

I don't like wheels with the "twisted" design.
 
The "twist" is going in the opposite directions on each side of the car. It just bugs me.

Driver With No Name 04-15-2001 02:12 PM

Can you please post some pics?

Dillo 04-15-2001 02:17 PM

NAH

LosGatosS4 04-15-2001 02:21 PM

Now that's a wheel. Much more sophistcated looking MHO. Much more $$$ I,m sure

Shredster 04-15-2001 03:02 PM

EXACTLY!!!! (more)...
 
I have real problems with the "twisty syndrome" too. Call me Neurotic... I NEED SYMMETRY IN MY WHEELS!!!

Driver With No Name 04-15-2001 03:03 PM

Very Nice! 545? How much did they cost you? What Width?

jyoteen 04-15-2001 05:59 PM

I'll post them when I get the last wheel. Otherwise, they are all sitting next to my desk
 
But here are some pics unmounted:

I'd get Hamann PG II. Momo's are heavy, had Arrows on my AWD Talon

LosGatosS4 04-15-2001 07:29 PM

thnx :) ... 18 x 8.5
 
ET38mm offset with Silver Satin finish ran ~$900 a wheel.

My humor is lost here... a few days and no one gets it.
