New 20's for the RS, Any ideas

**natedog** · 27th November 2006

Ok, I knwo the 19's look nice but I am wanting a change, plus I think one of the standard alloys is buckled. So knowing what Audi's prices are like Im kinda thinking give the girl a christmas gift.. As im also needing a couple of tryes..

so any ideas what will fit on the car? kinda moving towards the idea of a set of 20's, just want a nice set that will go on and not require any spacers

**DPM** · 27th November 2006

Nathan i've emailed you back with a few wheel choices!

**natedog** · 27th November 2006

ok thanks, I know it sounds like im being a pain do you haev any pictures with some of the wheels on cars.. So I can better get an idea..

**silver75** · 27th November 2006

if money is no object it has to be HREs in gunmetal brushed aluminium

**natedog** · 27th November 2006

You so should not have shown me them... just asked for a price on these : http://www.hrewheels.com/wheels/larg...g2=591R_lrg_a#

**Randomjim** · 27th November 2006

Wow yes get them

**marmite** · 27th November 2006

not sure about those
I like these:-

I want a set........!!!

Waiting for ABt to call back

**Randomjim** · 27th November 2006

They look kinda cheap and plain to me (even though there abt and they proberably cost a bomb)

**shufti** · 28th November 2006

love the hre ones. I think they are 2 or 3 piece and will cost a bomb.

i saw something similar on ebay the other week, I went to hunt them down for you and they are no longer there..........

found these though, something totally different but could work on an rs6 if you're brave enough to try. same 5/112 fitment, not sure on offset and you'd need the firm to supply with different tyres but if you like them it's worth an email to find out......... cheap!

**DPM** · 28th November 2006

LM's!

**silver75** · 28th November 2006

LMs are the nuts but it has to be forged HREs for the RS. No one else has them on an Audi on this side of the pond they are proper light and the finish is quality. Expensive but well worth it.

<<<these would look perfect on your car but they are more performance based so they only go up to 19s

**shufti** · 3rd December 2006

i'm hunting around for some 20's myself......... I don't have big bucks to spend so will be looking for something used.

what are the 20" tyre size recommended for the rs6?

**bbigman2000** · 5th December 2006

marmite, LOL those look insane, I take it they are 20" ?
Not certain I like them but they do look something else !!

They are 20's but the picture really does no favours, the car belongs to one of my old customers and it looks so much better in the flesh these wheels are great.

I love them my wife has got 19 inch ABT on her car(bora) and I had the 18 inch version on my allround

They are expensive but worth it!

**bbigman2000** · 8th December 2006

Cheers mate, yeh can imagine, ive just had my 19's refurbed "on the car" by Chips away, so I wont be changing them now !!

Also Just had a new windscreen fitted and two new wipers.

**natedog** · 8th December 2006

ok well I am weighing up the different option the HR's look so nice, im hoping i can find the money to get them

**Golfather** · 28th December 2006

HR's look very crisp, but dont BBS do LM's in 20"?
Would look better with the "real" deal !

**s8craig** · 29th December 2006

I have a set of 5 20" Slines with tyre pressure monitors fitted, Michelin PS2's with only 3K miles on them, plenty of tread left. The wheels have been refurbished once already and are a painted finish, not polished. One wheel is brand new never been used, currently used as the spare

�1500 the lot.

**natedog** · 31st December 2006

could you email me some pictures plz, I could be interested..

**marmite** · 1st January 2007

Nat not sure if they will fit, they are off a new A8 I suspect, as they are the only car that I have seen that came with 20 inch out of factory
They are just 20 inch version of ours

**natedog** · 11th January 2007

**S3JUS** · 11th January 2007

nice wheels...IMO they will look good on a hatchback or avant but not a saloon... stop messing about and get some HREs!!

**bbigman2000** · 11th January 2007

wow thats some serious rubber ! I quite like them, but not sure how they would look on a saloon ?

**bbigman2000** · 11th January 2007

Almost a grand a wheel not including rubber for 19" HRE's thats a bit excessive on a 30 grand car I feel., nice as they are.

Nice rims, proper pimp. They look bigger than 20"

**natedog** · 11th January 2007

was told they are 20's on it, like you say im not 100% sure about them talking to the guy this week, been quoted 3900 all in for rubber and wheels. the HRE's are loads of money not sure i can go that far..

**Randomjim** · 11th January 2007

I think they look wicked on that, looks like theres a nice deep dish. The tyres are a tiny profile!!

**natedog** · 11th January 2007

other picture of an rs6 saloon with some 20's on let me get it hosted up and show you guys

**natedog** · 11th January 2007

these are on an rs4 but can be got for an rs6

**Randomjim** · 11th January 2007

They look fat. What are they?

**natedog** · 11th January 2007

im not sure I asked them about wheels for rs6' they sent me a couple of pictures will be talking to them tomorrow and will let you guys know.. but yer they do look very rude

**Randomjim** · 11th January 2007

Yea they look awesome, your cars black aswell innit?

**natedog** · 11th January 2007

yer it is, so not sure if that will be too much black, will get a full list of wheels that will fit

**marmite** · 11th January 2007

Bling Bling!!
They look the dogs!!
Tint her up, nail her to the deck!!

I like the ones on the RS6 not sure about the ones on the RS4!

Would have to see them on though..sound like alot of money, must be able to get a better deal??
Do you know what tyres they are
http://www.dot-combustion.com/~amwhe...udi&startat=43

This place is on the finchley road about 6 miles from my house!!
Might even go and have a gander for you buddy

**Randomjim** · 12th January 2007

Those mahoosive american looking wheels look awesome but they must be sooo heavy. I've got a 9.5x19 for a merc sl500 at work and it weighs a tonne. But i spose an rs6 has plenty of power to allow the extra weight.

And in my mind and I'm sure other may agree they look the ********

NOthing wrong with tints though..and there is alot of people lowering there cars on here too....

just my Chav wording I guess??

**natedog** · 12th January 2007

yer im just waiting for an email back from them about the wheels, but yer im interested to see who else can offer them as im going to be hunting about and not going with the first price I get, as im sure for this kinda of package I will / could get a deal, even if is not going to be for some months it gives me the idea of what im looking at.

**Randomjim** · 12th January 2007

Whereabouts in the country are you? I sell rims.

**natedog** · 12th January 2007

Im around the surrey area, junction 11 M25

**Randomjim** · 12th January 2007

Oh ok might be a bit far for you to go. Im in west sussex near chichester. Let me know if you want any prices though.

**natedog** · 12th January 2007

ok will do, its only about an hour and 30 minutes from my area, so not that far at all.. So yer if you could give me an idea on price would be cool, drop me a pm

**Randomjim** · 12th January 2007

done

**Golfather** · 15th January 2007

natedog, what rims are those on the RS6, and where from?
I absolutely love them!
Pic seesm to altered though as the car is absolutley decked
But still, rims suit the car...

**natedog** · 15th January 2007

all I know is they are called STS or something, been quoted 3,800 for a set running 245/30/20 all round,they did try to sell me 10" wide at the back with a 285/25/20 but not sure if runing different profiles front and back with upset the 4wd

**Golfather** · 15th January 2007

could you possibly pm me the suppliers details, I'm quite keen to get more info and think they suit the car perfectly.

**Golfather** · 16th January 2007

Some nice rims on that site, might give em a try.
Although @ 1k per corner, you'd be gutted if you kerbed it !

**natedog** · 16th January 2007

i kinda like these
