Default Actually, I've been searching for 18s... so far, wheelexchange has been the cheapest -m-

but why 17s? I'm trying to get out of my oem sports 17s upto either 18s or 19s... But I think already, I've made up my mind for the 18s. Cost isn't that much more than the 17s... Anyway, if you find any place that's cheaper, please hit me up... TIA

Default No... I kind of disagree... I think the cost jumps up unproportionately if you jump to the 19s, -m-

but I think the 18s are within range... In fact, if you do a search online, you can get some good 18" all-season tires for the price of 17s... Anyway, not trying to convince ya, but just that there are sites out there offering good discounts on tires/rims.

Default They're not all from the same foundry.

Apparently, there are 5 foundries making RS4 replicas. Also, replica center caps look cheesy. Check it out and you may want OEM caps.

I'd be curious to here youe experience, if you go with Wheel Exchasnge. I'm thinking of buying some other wheels from them.

Default I ordered mine from my local America's Tire Store dealer

And got a great deal - only $160 each; they are made by Replica Alloys. I am using mine for Winter. See the link for info. So far - very happy with them.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a6/msgs/325663.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/a6/msgs/325663.phtml</a</li></ul>
