I agree but I like them more on the Avant, on a sedan it looks over the top, like the car isn't big enough for that design (which is isn't lol)

You can't argue with something that looks good no matter how many people have done it. I love all rs4 reps, heaven forbid there is an amazing rim that looks oem. Its a hell of a lot better then running into a civic rolling on the same gay *** enkies lol

and to the OP, b7 rs4's look good, but think about getting b5 rs4's instead. b7 rs4s look great on a slammed s4 with painted lowers, but they look somewhat odd on a b5 a4 w/o painted lowers and stock suspension suspension (i am assuming u arent dropped because u dont have that listed in ur sig, but could be wrong)

and dont think any rs4 reps are overplayed, because how often are u gunna run into another b5 with them in your area??? I live in a city with 15,000 people and me and my buddy are the only b5's around.

thats just my .02¢
I know what my rims are. All I was trying to say was I liked the B7 RS4 rims better than the R8 rims. I guess you & maybe others misunderstood my FTW. IMHO, you should go the B5 RS4 route, but if you have your heart set on these, go with the B7 RS4's.

i just got my hands on some B5 original RS4 wheels.

I have to say that i am trully impressed with the result on my car. Now that i am thinking, i didnt found something better looking other than those on a B5.

the RS4 reps are packaged with 225/40-18 nexen n3000 tires. any good for a summer tire? any trouble with that tire size either?, rubbing, scraping, etc?

Good to hear you guys are on the same page, Im so happy that there is so many beautiful OEM parts to choose from, it makes me proud to own an Audi, who would want to mess with such a beautiful design?
