I searched and didn't see a thread like this. If it exists, please bump it or point me to it and delete this one.
But if it doesn't exist, then let's get it started!
Every forum needs a good wheel show-off thread. Especially in the model specific forums since specs are different.
I'd start, but ummm... my A3 is still being built.

So let's see'em!
And don't forget to post all the particulars, like size, offset, where ya got'em, etc.

hesaputz, your car gives me wood.

 

Thank you very much. I went to a lot of trouble to color match. The wheels, grill and surround,fog grills, mirrors, and side markers are all matched in a titanium gray, about 2 shades lighter than the stock grill. Wheel caps are stock A3, with the rings and outer ring in regular painted silver, to match the front rings and S line emblems I recolored. Next - the roof rails.
Sticking to the subject, these are great wheels if you're gonna stay with 17's - about $250 apiece at Tire Rack.

 

How about these sexy bitches??? LOL

 

Seriously though, I like these BBS style rims and they fit our A3 too.

 

Just stay away from wheels that look like this:

Hey, those are better than the anus looking 5 spokers coming on my 08 s-line!

Thanks for posting! It will be good reference to have examples of OEM wheels here, too.

Who makes those bbs style rims on the white car? They look like BBS LM's.

 

Heres my 2006 A3 3.2 Quattro with 17" Borbet Type XL (black accents). Got them on closeout from tirerack.com for 145 a wheel.

 

Nice job, sleek and sexy. Good combo with the Black A3, almost has a look of a BMW X5. We'll put together, Although I dont think they'd work on any other color than yours! Again Nice job.

Still want to see a A3 with S3 wheels, a la b7 s4 cabrio, Those are what im planning on.
