I’m going with them I think
£520 of that site for 4 wheels
4 tyres or 4 wheels. Think I got a bit mixed up or misread something. It’s Late on Saturday night
Think what I meant to say was dealer wanting £419 for 1 wheel with tyre.
Yep, OEM wheels are not cheap, especially from dealers. You can get refurbed ones on eBay but that can be risky unless from well known source.
There is a German company that refurb and ship from Germany on eBay - ideal reifen. But still not cheap for a set depending on wheel size.
Obviously cheapest option is to swap tyres only as I have done before but a pain, but a lot cheaper than spare alloys.

Thanks mate for the links, will save them for future reference, as will buy spare alloys when funds allow, but may not be this winter.Yes that company is this one: https://www.original-wheelscompany.com/audi/
This firm is also on Ebay as: https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/original-raeder?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2754
I bought my Winter wheels and tyres from them and was very pleased. Excellent quality and service.

Nice mate, where did you get them from?
Looks good.
Those Michelin’s doesn’t have much rim protection though or is it just the photos ?
When do you guys are planning to change to winter tyres? Mine had arrived and eagerly waiting to swap them.
Will wait for end of October but it seems temps are likely to be above 10’C on averageNormally I do mine around end of October but still to source a set.

Will swap them in 2 weeks time. Anyone got suggestions on how to store them. Planning to get some tyre bags and leave them in the shed. Should I get a small tyre rack?
Dunno about the UK but for 50 francs here in Switzerland the garage takes care of storage. I prefer this to getting the car dirty and clambering them in and out everywhere.

Wish we had that here, but like other posts nobody seems to do it.
Some dealership does this. When I got my first set of wheels it included storage and them swapping twice a year for the first 2 years then it went to £120 a year for storage and swapping. At £120 I shoved them in my own garage and did it myself.Dunno about the UK but for 50 francs here in Switzerland the garage takes care of storage.
