Default which wheels

which wheel do you think would look better on my Silver B5?

http://www.edgeracing.com/1998/Audi/A4_2.8/wheels/18/

Im lookin at either the Flik Wasp (black) or Falken Koblenz (gloss black). I'm a little iffy on the falkens but i just want some opinions

I think the wasp is a nice looking wheel, in the gunmetal colour, with polished lip. They are a good price too, and a decent weight.

I've heard bad things about edgeracing's service though... but who knows.

Yeah, the wasp is one of the nicer affordable wheels.
www.woodandwheels.com sells the HP evo with some decent rubber for quite cheap. I'd get a weight on those things before buying them though. For the love of god, try and stay under 25 lbs a wheel... Lots of cheap wheels get up to and over 30 lbs a wheel, and it makes car feel like ***.

Yeah they are cheap, and for like 1045 or something they were selling them with some unknown brand of summer tire (which although might not perform well, it had a very high treadwear rating). Oh, and that price was shipped.

Check the classifieds section on this forum, under ... actually, here's the link: https://www.audiforums.com/m_12542/tm.htm

I'm sure they'd still honour those prices -- but find out a weight! I'd be curious to know what the 18x8 evo's weigh.
