Default Aftermarket/Replica Wheels

Hey guys, I am new to the forum, and just got my 2002 A4 Q 3 weeks ago. The car came with the stock 15 inch? 7 spoke rims. You might be able to make em out in my avatar pic I was on Ebay and saw here Replica 17's for a decent price. Now my major question is, does anyone here have replica wheels, and if so does anyone know the reputation of the manufacturer. They say they are made in Italy, but to me that means jack in that they could be made in someone's garage or something. I think that they look really nice though, but I want to make sure they don't do anything to the warranty, of which I have 2 more years of Full and 2 additional Certified years of extended. I love my car, and I have never even had alloys before. I have Pirelli P-Zero All Season Tires or so I believe, I need to check and repost on the specs. Also, if you know of another more reputable/better manufacturer (besides Audi OEM) please let me know! Oh I just found out how to add pics, so here are the 15 inchers! (Notice the wheel gap

I had a recent problem with rims hitting the calipers after new pads fitted. Dealer put on wrong wheels.

I found a company called aaarims.com on the web, they claim there stuff is as original spec.

Has anyone used them?

Yeah i've heard of people buying there stuff. Most people say to stay clear as their build quality isn't always up to par. Achtuning.com and Hartmannwheels.com are excellent resellers.
