notb the wieght that matters its that the stock RS4 rims are soft and are known to bend easily i would think it would look great but look into some aftermarket ones they are a little stronger

I personally have aftermarket 19 inch RS4 replicas on my 2000 S4. They look great, but here is a slight rub when the wheel is cranked all the way. Other than that they are fine. I have driven 5,000 miles on them, and Highway 275 around Cincinnati is pretty bad, if anybody knows what i am talking about.

I have the same 19" RS4 replicas and love them. I have slightly bent one though (and I get a bit of a thump at certain speeds and when the tires are cold etc - but not to bad - still I'll likely replace it at some point...) - as I do a lot if city driving (in DC and some parts just suck). Still they are much better then the 19" Supperlegaras I had previoulsy (2 cracked, 2 bent to hell - etc). I replaced and fixed them numerous times. I still have the superleggars (they are very light and look great) - but i think they are only good for track and all interstate driving....
