b5 wheels?

b5 wheels?
the wheels on my car are stock, and in my opinion, generally uninteresting. I was looking for something that is kind of a dark gold or bronze. I think that with my black exterior would go together pretty well. That or white wheels maybe (opinion?). could someone suggest some wheels that would look good on my car?
also, Im trying to stay on a budget, and i would also prefer they arent 24 inches as well.

Well thats REALLY gonna limit your choices
On a more serious note, there are a retarded amount of wheel choices out there. Knowing a little bit more about what you're looking for might help us make better suggestions. Do you like BBS-style mesh? 5 spokes? 10 spokes? Offset? Stagger? Are you looking for an OEMish style or something that sticks out a little more? 17",18"?
When you say gold, are you talking "WRX" gold or "Ludacris 100 spoke Daytons" gold?

As for the actual style, I want something that is many-spoked, but not overpowering. I have found several Konig wheels that I like, but they don't come in the color i want, or they don't work with my car. like these.

What size are the stock wheels on a 99 a4?

the size of stock generally depends on whether or not your car has the sport package. and there are a million wheel choices out there, some cars can pull off the bronze look, some cant. just dont turn her into something shes not. when i was looking for wheels, i just googled like audi a4 b5 with 18in wheels. and i went from there deciding my style and all of that.

Yeah all those Konig's you posted (and most Konig's in general, for that matter) are for imports. 4 lugs, not a chance of those fitting on your car. I do like that color though, and I think you're right that it would look good on a black car.
Stock for the 99 2.8 was 16x7 I think, don't recall the offset.
Here's what I think you should do:
When you're in the market for wheels, the color/finish isn't as important as the style/fitment. If you can find a wheel you like that fits on the car, you can paint it, polish it, powder coat it, etc. The bolt pattern for our cars is 5x112, so I'd start by searching around for wheels you like with that pattern. You can worry about painting them bronze later. JM2C

if i cannot find anything at all that works, i would consider that, but until im sure there is nothing already like what i want out there, i most likely wont.

also if you want you can check out classifieds... i know vwvortex has a 5x112 classified and there are a lot of very nice wheels on there i would jump on if i didnt already have a set of wheels... but if you dont mind buying used then classifieds are the answer...hope that helps a little
