Default wheel opinions

for those few of us here on the forum that like 5 spoke wheels, what do you think of the factory 5 spoke b6 wheels on the b5 platform?

i have been hunting wheels lately and i like the look of a classy 5 spoke wheel but they are hard to find

here is one i am strongly considering

ah, well, if u want the clean, kinda stock look (which i do like, just not a HUGE fan of 5 spokes on european cars) then i'd go with the second one. looks like a revamped version of the stock audi 5 spokers

if anything, ide go with the second ones.. i didnt like the bolt pattern on the first, but i like the 5 spoke, the majority of the people on this forum dont, but i deffinetly prefer that over those crazy multi spoke/spider web looking wheels, go for it.. if you wanna look at alil bit of lip(dish) on the wheel there are many other wheels you can look at other than the ones on tire rack, its very limited at that site

any suggestions on sites to browse?

nothing on ebay has a very classy look. i had best results with tire rack.

i work at a dealership that has a account with tire rack and can get slightly discounted prices

those second five spoke wheels are cleeaan. i like those, alot. i'd say definitely go with those bad boys if you like the 5 spokes and you want a more subtle look, which i love.
