Well I have been on the rim search for quite some time now because im very picky. I came across these and my buddies said they were the best ones they've seen but I wanted some fellow A3ers to tell me their input on these.

http://edgeracing.com/2007/Audi/A3_2.0T/bundle/134/
(with the Nexen 5000 or 3000)
I probably searched every single 17in black rim on the web and didnt find a single one I liked. I saw how cheap these 18s were with the bundle they come in. I looked up some reviews on the tires and all I found were great reviews on them.

Just wanted your input

Thanks!


**Let me know if the link does not work because most links on this website were not working for others when I linked stuff to them.

 

Link is to no specific wheel.

 

also with cheaper wheels more than often they weigh lots more. "i had 18' enkies on my gti and they weighed 50lbs each inculdung tires, you could feel the diffrence it was slower"

 

If they are Fliks they are not to shabby. I have seen a lot of them on Jettas and Golfs.

To be honest though with wheels (or anything else car related)its not what anyone else things its what you the owner of the car thinks. I have seena ton of cars where the owner thinks the wheels are the ****, where as I think they look like ****. To each his own though.

If you like the wheels get'em

 

Austin: Tires/wheels weigh 22 lbs each, so its around that :-/

Burnt: Yea i agree they are kind of on the cheap side, but ive seen tons on these forums having fliks on their audis so i didnt know. I was hoping you could pop out the center cap to fit an audi one there and i sent the company an email asking about a week ago and still no reply. Im just trying to stay below 800$ for the rims and so it limits me. ive gone to tirerack, edgeracing, discounttire, and a few others. if anyone knows any more sites that give good deals on nice rims let me know

I never said cheap were a problem :P When I had my jetta I got some 18's from wheelmax!The wheels held up well but the paint started to fade a bit after a year. And when they say Hyper black.. they really mean grey =x I forgot what brand they were, its been like 5 years. But I assume most wheels in the sub $1000 range may have the same problem. But like I said before a lot of people have them / the brand.So ifthere are minimal complaints they cant be half bad. That's whats go great about these car communities. If something is wrong or built bad I'm sure you would be able to find tons of threads about it.

Just don't forget 1 thing! as with most wheels that are not custom fit to the car like must of the expensive brands do. You will most likely have to get Hubcentric rings. They are cheap, but don't forget to get them or the wheels will vibrate and cause problems. Places like Edgeracing, wheelmax, etc.. should sell them to you when you place your order.

 

I'm gonna have my BBS rgr forged on sale by tommorow if you want them warning they are not going to be cheap, but they will be a bargain from what i paid for them.

$3500 at tire rack pirelli pzero nero tires less then 150 miles brand new $2000 plus shipping
With lugs 18X8 way better looking then those fliks or enkei 19lbs lift with one hand add 10 hp to each wheel lol.

 

Thetas a good deal Stryker. I'm probably going to be putting my DPE's up for sale soon. I was thinking $2k. They have been sitting in my garage for like a year. about time I sell them.

 

1k is pushin it for me ><
