anyone have aftermarket wheels on their RS3? share pics if ya do. I have the black optic package but not much of a fan of the rims. looking at these as a potential replacement but unsure how this color would look on my Mythos black RS3.
macjuice; Audiworld forums are my forum of choice but I sometimes use other sites. A RS3 specific group on Audizine forums has several threads dedicated to aftermarket wheel choices. I currently drive a Mythos black S3 and love the 19 inch wheels from the 2015 model year. I have a RS3 coming in July (Nardo grey with BO package) and am considering getting black wheels. Not overly keen on the RS3 wheels either but need to see them up close. Will probably get aftermarket rims and use the OEM rims for winter tires. Good luck in search.

Thanks Fixeroh. Have fun with your new RS3! I'm loving this car more and more every time i drive it.
I contacted HRE to see if they have a wheel that will fit the RS3 with Carbon brakes.
Told them I want to keep the staggered setup of 255 front, 235 rear.
they tell me that the HRE FF04 19 x 9.5 et 45 will work on the front and that the 19 x 8.5 et 47 will work on the rear.
Does anybody know if this is true? in both cases it pushes the inside of the wheel about 1/2” closer to the suspension.
is there that much room under there?

Picture i linked is HRE ff01 on ccb's. Square setup. 255/30/19.
Sounds right what they told you though, rear have tons of clearance.

The stockers don't really look much better in person. Weakest part of the whole package.
