Default 18in RS4 reps

Anyone seen these in person? I'm wondering if they'll look funny in a smaller size than the OEM 19. The reason I'm considering them is that I can reuse the tires that come with the car instead of having brand new wheels and tires sitting in my garage. I could try to sell them, but shipping and such can be a pain. Looks like the reps are around $175/ea.

Thanks for the pics. I think the 18in reps look better than the turbines. Did you ever pick them up?

Default One slight concern-

I read that the turbines are 18X9 and the reps are 18X 8.5- I'm guessing that this half inch won't affect fitment of the stock tires designed for the 18X9 wheels?

Also, will the tire pressure sensors simply switch over to the new wheels from the old?

The tire pressure sensors should fit your new wheels.. It's an easy fix.

245/40/18s fit perfectly on 8.5 inch width rim. 245 are actually a bit narrow for a 9" rim.
