Try Tire Rack: you enter your year and make and the site lists available wheels for your car. You can also preview what the wheels will look on your car down to the make, model and even color. Good luck!

I just put some OZ Superleggera and Bridgestone RE750's on my '01. 18x8, 35mm offset, 235/40R18. They cost a lot though. I now wish I went something cheaper though, but I love they way they look. Bought them from tirerack.

I personally would go for performance instead of looks. The lighter the better. Check out tirerack and look at the SSR Competition they weigh only 16.8lbs a pop for 18's and 15.5 lbs for 17's. They look pretty good too!

That's my 2 cents [8D]

yeah ssrs are no doubt one of the lightest.

hartmann sources great reps whether they be RS4's or DTMs
you can probably find them on achtuning.com

flik also makes a few anthracite/black rims that are gaining popularity among younger a6 owners. the "justice" line seems to be the most popular. i've heard of 'wasps' too.

Thinking of getting the LZ 'Eleganz" thoughts?

Have the 2.7T... can I put a 17 x 7.5 rim? What is the widest tire I can got to? (I am going more for looks here, not perfromance.)
