RE: rim question....
I'm lovin' the hyper black. That would look so sweet on my car!
Listed on the 18" rims are the +43 offset and the 5-112 pattern which is the wheel you want for the A3. All will work well, but lowering the car does always bring the possibility of rubbing. That will depend on how much it's lowered and the stiffness of the suspension. Tough to say if your proposed set-up will rub or not. At least using the 7.5" rim, you are at the same stock width, and if you get the tires in the appropriate sidewall height to match the OEM overall diameter, then I'd say you wouldn't have any rubbing issues. But, don't hold me accountable for any problems you might encounter. LOL

BTW, what is the price for all 4 wheels?
