Default Need a replacement rim or new rims

Greetings folks.
I bought my 1.8 quattro A4 sport pkg with 17" rims last Oct. But I went over a pothole and dented the rim beyond repair. Audi Dealership wants $550 for a new rim and mounting the old tire to it. Seems expensive. Anyone know where I can buy my own rim model # 8D0 601 025AD 1H7 size 17"x7.5" from. I have seen various vendors selling the same exact rim on ebay as a set of 4 for about $500 for all 4. But they do state they are replicas made from alloy. Im a little reluctant to buy something from ebay that states "replica".
Should this be a concern?

Does anyone have a website where I can order this authentic audi rims cheaper than the dealer. I might even just buy a whole new other set of 4 rims, but what is the largest rim I can put on my car. I currently have 17x7.5.


Thx in advance.

You might try Ronal, they make the factory wheels for Audi's. Every now and then stocker wheels show up on Ebay.
