You don't make it easy! The Oz are purposeful and stealthy, but the RS6s have the bling effect. If it is for show I think the RS6s are good. But by the same token, those that know are always going to respect the Oz as being the better rim. Nice to be making that choice though. :icon_thumright:

Edit: have you chopped the tints on the bottom pic? :uhm:
 
The ultra's do look good but the ***** look so damn good
 
The Oz are much better imo, as you say more purposeful.
 
rs6 definately:) sporty and fit that s3 perfectly
 
I was saying this on another thread about silver for sprint blue black just kills the car's colour....

The rs6's look very nice mate id go with them definatly

Im not into 18s niether 19s will always look better they just fill the arch nicely , gotta be silver all the way for sprint blue :o.k:....
 
yeah tints look great they totally change the look of the car not to dark of coarse ...

just looked at your pics on a3 pics looks great mate really nice :thumbsup:
 
RS6 reps all day everyday!!!

They look amazing on your car btw :o.k: great photography as well
 
No No to RS6,relicas no way.To heavy

OZ Ultraleggera is amazing,strong and light,make them shiny silver if you don like the dark style.But dont leave OZ, They will also stay in shape if roads are bad or if you hit a pot on the roads or a track

OZ ALL THE WAY.......

youde be suprised there pretty light you know , and ive leathered my wheels accross potholes and they take it just like the originals reps are much better made now and pretty strong .... id take the weight loss for the looks anyday unless i was a serious track nut.....
 
thank you all for your nice comments and compliments...

as for the OZs infact i was expecting much more difference from those wheels but i am not satisfied from the performance... they are very light and in theory you should get better steering response better throttle response better braking etc. but in real life you dont notice any of them.. we tested oz vs rs6 reps and get no difference in side by side accelerations.. also tested them at the track and got no better times...
may be a prof.race driver can get all out of it but not amateurs...
i can say it doesnt worth the high price you pay...
and also light wheels effect the sense of driving in negative way, you get a feeling as if you are driving a cheaper car especially at the bumps and road imperfections...
the best thing for the ultraleggera is it has good caliper clearence for BBK..
 
Quite a hard choice. But i like the colour on the Oz ones an d i do like the RS6 ones. Hmmm if i got the RS6 ones i'd have them in the same colour as the Oz alloys :)

RS6 reps for me, looks stunning. Where did you get these from,they look really good quality for reps.
 
If you didn't notice any difference from the reduction in unsprung weight, I'd go with the RS6 reps without hesitation. They look MUCH nicer in my opinion. The OZs are nice, but as Blazin said, the dark OZs don't suit the sprint blue.
I reckon they'd look pretty sweet on an ibis white car
 
as of now i bought these RS6 replicas from my friend Olynth. :):blackrs4:

you can ask Olynth for details :icon_thumright:
 
As you are more concerned with looks than weight etc I voted for the RS6 reps as they look amazing, in an ideal world you would have 2 sets of wheels, lightweight 18" for track stuff or dodgy winters and the reps for the Wow factor.
 
Just looked at the pics again, definetly RS6 they really suit the car, even though the Oz are an exceptional wheel they make the car look cheaper imo, I am about to sell my spare set for the same reason, I just can't get on with black wheels, the benefits may well be there for my track events but if I hate the look of my car with them on I'd rather do without.
 
the rs6 look stunning on the car, suit it really well, but the OZ's make the car look mean and make it look like it lives on the track, which i like. personally id have the rs6's tho, it shows off the car more which is what your after!

i still have the 18" oz and i may use them for track or snow, i have also oem s3 wheels.. dunno where to store all :uhm: i may use oz for track oems for snow rs6s for show :)

id be happy to look after your OZ's for you, would be in a safe place.................. on my car!!!!! lol :icon_thumright:
 
The RS6 reps are really killing it for me. the Oz's cheapen the car for me. The 2nd picture looks so nice is any of that photoshopped ????. i like the 1st picture at the Turkish track is that a track day???. Back on subject now if your looking for some lightweight alloys why not try the 0z's Speedlines. I think they look much nicer

photo with rs6 is retouched in PS but not major changes..
yes 1st photo shot at Istanbul Park F1 track, it was a track day..
i am not looking for lightweight wheels ultraleggeras do fine for me at the track.. out of track i will use rs6s...
 
The RS6 reps look good.
Can you tell me the exact dimensions (wide, et) and post more photos of the car with the 19 wheels
:hubbahubba:
 
Can you tell me the price of the rims and who makes them?
I would like a set but I don't know which ones to buy.
:s3addict:
 
@S38P

Thanks for buying wheels mate. I want to invite you for a launch. Just kidding :haha:

rs6 rims are very heavy i have a set on my car which is lava grey , yes they look nice and suit the car well , but there is better looking wheels for this car and they are alot lighter , man these are the heaviest wheels i have had to carry

what ??? there's different make of rs6 reps but ive held some also and they were that light they were that light i didnt buy them because i though they would snap at the first pothole ,

maybe you need the gym because they were to light to me thats why i went for the rs4 reps they were much heavyer guess theres a few rep makers making these wheels eh ....
