Rota Torques are nice for a cheaper set.

Yeah...I am a little amazed at the price...but I did want quality...since I do plan on more track days in the future. The RS-GTs are two piece forged...light but strong...

RE: Dream Wheels
OK, not my "dream wheels," but I just bought some new gummi (anybody BESIDES me speak coloquial Italian?) and the gummi-geeks tell me one of my raden (german, volks) is rotto... Gespalten... Phugkin cracked. So, it's either $275.00 (+$25.00 S&H) for an authentic Audi AlumiRim. Or, $450.00 (S&H incl) for 4 of THESE:

RE: Dream Wheels
Gummi is Italian for Tires.
Raden is German for Wheels.
Rotto = broken/Italian.
Gespalten = broken/German.

They've got reasonable priced Gummi, ancora (too)...

Also, I misspoke... Gummi is Italian for Rubber, not Tires. Common usage is to refer to Tires as Gummi (gu-me)

RE: Dream Wheels
AWD I know you been away from Germany for a while, but your Italian rules!!
Riefen = tire German
Felger = Rims. wheels German
Gummi = rubber German
My fav Rim would be the Zeforged 18's 5 spoke overdrive (Black center, polished lip)
