Default I did that but they only have them on a Passat, S4 and A4 and .....

I was hoping for an actual picture, not the tirerack preview on car picture, it doesn't give me a good idea of the look.

Man those look sweet! 2 questions for you though. Centercaps? Is it possible to get the 4ring center for the wheels that I have found at Tirerack.com? The weight of the wheel? 26lbs, is that a good weight for an aftermarket wheel? Wheels will be my 1st mod on her and hopefully if it ever quits snowing here I can order them and get them on. Thanks alot for the pictures.

Default I bought mine from TireRack. I built the center caps from the 5 spoke OEM wheel...

center caps. If you do not have the 5 spoke wheels you can buy the center caps from your Audi dealer. I removed the AT Italia logo from the plastic cap then sanded and flattened the surface of the plastic.

I then removed the spring clip from the back of the Audi OEM center cap and used epoxy to glue the OEM onto the plastic AT cap. Actually looks pretty good. They stick out 1/8" but the edges of the OEM cap are finished so it looks quite nice.

26 lbs. is quite heavy for an 18" wheel. The 5 spoke 17 x 7.5 OEMs are 21 lbs. each. If you are going to autocross or track your car then you want a lighter wheel. If you want it for looks then go with what you like. I debated with myself if I made the right choice but like you I like the looks of this wheel and it's very reasonably priced for an 18 x 8 wheel.
