Well personally I like the ones in the first link the best. Just call and make sure they come in a 5x100 bolt pattern. A4's have a 5x112 bolt pattern.
Also be prepared to buy new tires to fit them... Hell why spend money on heavy audi rims, just get some nice light weight aftermarket wheels!

thanks for the input. i'd like some light weight wheels but i really want to keep a somewhat stock look. i just want to update a little because my 17" factory wheels are busted.

Be differnt, get the S4 replicas and use the stock wheel caps if they are in good shape. The first ones (a4 sport) are to close to the ALMS edition wheels.

thats what i was thinking. i've alway loved those s4 wheels. they look similar to what i havenow only with the flared out ends. i think it would look pretty cool. i wonder if anyone could photoshop those onto a tt.

Make sure they fit though!My brother has an S4 with and I tried to put the second set you listed on mine when I had a nail in one of my tires and they didn't fit. Either set look great but I'd probably go with the second just for the ease of cleaning less spokes.

Even if they aren't the right bolt pattern you can get adapters to make them fit.
ECS sells some and so does Part4vws.
Parts 4 VW has 112x5 - 100x5 adapters.

I like the RS6 replicas better butI think you should get a nice set of aftermarket wheels instead ofOEM replicas.

If you Google O.E. Replicas you will find a lot of complaints. I was considering them as well but the negative feedback is keeping me away.
