Default BBS RX 16 in wheels

they're used, the owner wants $300, they're in great condition...any opinion on these wheels for an A4? Are they any good? Do they have a history of being crap or should it be something to consider? The tire shop scratch my wheels and would be paying half, it costs me the same money to get my wheels (stock) fixed...should I look for different wheels? I want to replace them with 16's.

Thank you

Thank you, I appreciate this tip...I didn't think so, but then I read some reviews and they were not very positive. Thank you for your input, I appreciate it.

Fabian.

yes, cups are included as well, so I think I'm definitely going to do it...I was unsure about the reliability aspect, but if you haven't heard anything negative about it...they're on the way.

Thank you for your help and your opinions, I really appreciate it.

$300 for BBS is a really good deal, even if they are only 16". Slammed on some coilovers, and some spacers to give the back a little poke, those wheels will look amazing!!

Yup, they're really good deal especially with the centercaps. The centercaps themselvescan go up to $100 for a set.
