These are the car's OEM wheels; bog-standard 16-incher. Easy to clean, but pretty dull;
These are the 18-inch A8 reps I fitted a couple of years ago. They cost £750 with Goodyears GSDs, and as soon as I got them on, I knew they didn't look right. They were also pigs to clean, very heavy, and ruined the ride and handling;
So, I went back to the OEMs, until yesterday, when I got these fitted. They're 17 inch RS6 reps, and I think they look just perfect, bearing in mind the rest of the car is unmodified, and standard SE ride height. They're shod with 225/45/17 Falken ZE912s. Early impressions are of much improved steering response, bump absorption, and reduced noise levels. Way too soon to test them for grip, but so far I'm very happy. They cost £540 from Wheels Gateway (a shop front for LK Performance), included a full set of bolts and locking bolts, and arrived less than 24 hours after shipping.
