Default Rims

Well, im stuck... my current rims i like, but tyhe previous owner scratched the living crap out of em. i talked to a company that refinishes em adn they saiod iuts $175/wheel making $700 without the tax adn spare. i was wondering if anyone knows where i could get RS4 reps or just some newer nicer 18" audi rims insdead of redoing these. then i could also put some nice summer tires on the new ones and throw these on for the snow!

Hmm, i checked out who i think ur talking about and the only replica rims are the ones i allready have. the old style sport rims that they call rs4 reps. i am thinking i want either newer A4 rims or the newer rs4 ones (reps)

Hyper black finish would look awesome on a yellow car.

If you stick to an ebay member with a lot of positive feedback you should be fine.

i would go with the polished silver look, it looks so good on the car. Especcially the b5 model. I have the same wheels but the previous owner painted them a light greyish color. But for some reason my spare rim is polished silver and wished all mine were like that. I dont know if the hyper black would look good, maybe if it had a polished lip...but it doesnt. As for the newer rs4 rims, i think the older ones look better on the b5. Ebay has some good deals on these rep's, just browse the sellers feed
