Well a forum member and friend of mine has approached me for my wheels and I've agreed to sell with my car (with no engine in) on axle stands until I find something that suits me.
I've been thinking of some A6 Le Mans 19" wheels with the full DTM kit? I haven't seen that yet on the forum but I'm open to suggestion. So chaps, let's see what you got! Any recommendations will be noted :) thanks in advance
 
If you're thinking of staying OEM and with 19's Craig I'd go for Speedlines, my personal favourite.

Go for DTM Style but in 20s may look even better

Le Mans would look spot on with the DTM kit, car would then be all go and all show! Either that or a lightweight forged aftermarket alternative like OZ Superleggera's (set on eBay with bidding currently at a very tempting price).

They would (and currently are haha got them on my car) be my first port of call but I think they look a bit soft for a DTM kit, plus the car would have came factory fitted with 18" RS6 wheels so it wouldn't be a big change from the stock wheels.
 
With massive show off stoppers like the ones you do have, I would consider the following:
Oem - 19'' TTRS

or..
Bee-em-Dub-u X5 19'' or 20''

or some AMG goodies- many styles ,all look good 19''

or as an alternative porsche 997 turbo's 19''

as for aftermarket ones you cant go wrong with 3sdm's ,rotiforms, cades alloys.
sorry for picture bombing btw.

Cheers chaps, some good suggestions there! Iam fancying something oem this time, as I've spent more than I should on the DTM kit. Really like the Le Mans 19s, but would also like some nice multi spokes like the merc c63 amg's but your looking at £1000 really.
The options are endless!
Also like the 3sdm with the staggered fitment (similar to the BBS ch)
Really am spoiled for choice.
I'm not sure about 20s as I just can't be bother ed with cracked rims etc. It's hard enough with the 19s.
 
I like the BBS Ch but I've had them 2 years now and 2 different colours.... I really like them but I dunno, maybe a new look!

To **** on my chips though I've found a small crack in my NSF wheel which I've told my mate about, but it's looking like the deal may fall through now.

So anybody looking for some BBS ch? Lol! Gonna have to get another wheel and paint it to match before I sell them but that's life I guess
 
What Ch u got ? I've got an 18" Ch028 et43 8j with brand new Michelin pilot sport 3 on sat in garage , just silver tho but no curb damage etc , I'd say 99% mint & Genuine Ch if interested

Their 19s mate, probably gonna drop in price for him if he wants them.
 
Well so much for new wheels. Well, I guess they are new in a sense. Just bought a full set of BBS CH 19" (5) genuines for £400 without tyres. So looks like I'm sticking with the BBS.
It was gonna cost me £350 just for one so I guess I've done pretty well out of it.

Now to bin the ditch finders and get some good rubber on!

Next question....

Silver?

Or

Black? (Again)
Matt or gloss
