    Do you mean genuine RS4 wheels? Or genuine RS4 "style" wheels?

    The RS4 wheels will have a lower offset (you after B5 or B7 style?). Off the top of my head B7's are ET29 and B5's ET19/20 (?)

    RS4 "style" will be 18's with an ET of 43 or so.

    If they're Audi wheels they will be marked with the Audi rings inside and possibly made by Ronal.

    WANTED: Unpainted standard front & rear lower valance (with twin exhaust cut outs) - from someone who's doing an S-Line upgrade.

    Genuine OEM RS4 and RS4 Style alloys have a lip on the outer diameter of the wheel. This is an easy way of telling, as I don't know of any copies/replica wheels that have this.

    Its the 1 with 7 spokes on them mate and they have the bit out of every spoke if that makes sence.

    these are going for £299, seem to have the outer lip as well which most reps dont have. they look a bit odd though. not as curved as the ones above which look stunning.

    The ones QuattroJames has shown are Velocity Motorsport Racing(US) wheels, probably the best looking reps on the market as they have managed to feature the concave look like most reps cant!

    I have seen the odd set float around Ebay that do have a decent concaveness to them, just need to keep looking to find a set!

    OEM 2nd hand Audi go from anything around £500-1000 usually.
