Default Have we discussed these wheels yet?

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/18815/audi8.1.jpg"></center><p>Does anyone know the spec, meaning are they 8s or 8.5s, or are they pushed out with spacers? I think they look pretty good, any opinions?

Nice, but they stick out a smidge too far.

I like those wheels. Maybe 9". Love that setback to the rivet line.

Default I like 'em, I'm shocked they fit 2.7Ts or 4.2s

They are obviously way low offset since they do indeed fit. They'll probably only fit in 18" or higher.

Looks like an 8" rim....They "stick-out" because the wheel has a smaller offset than the factory's!?
