Default RS4 Reps!

Ok, I know this has probably been requested a billion jillion times, but I've searched a bit and I'm not satasfied. I'm debating a few ideas for rims: RS4 vs RS6 reps and 17" vs 18". I'm thinking probably matte black powder coat. Can you guys post any pics you have of 17" or 18" RS4/RS6 reps on a B5? I mainly want a size comparison, some 18s look too big on the B5 while some fill the well nicely. I guess its the spoke design making it look bigger or something.


Thanks guys!

a guy up the street from me had a silver b5 before trading up to a b5 s4, but he had 18" RS4 reps in gunmetal and his car looked beautiful. I know you are looking for pictures but I think 18" RS4 look great, a little over done, but they still look good.

18"s definately dont look too big on a b5 with correct suspension... sometimes i wish i had 19"s with a little lower drop... but 18"s are pretty close to perfect

that being said... heres my car with h&R race springs on stock shocks... rides pretty good i definately like the look over stock! (18" rims obv) last one is a before shot to see the comparison is from stock height without rims to lowered height with rims

My rims are 18" Hartmann RS4 DTM reps. I am very happy with the look of them.

18x8.5 b5 rs4 reps look good.

I had 17" celebrations on my car which are close enough looking to rs4 wheels..

I used to have b7 rs4 reps in gloss black. But I sold them.. I'm looking at either gallardo wheels now or bbs rc's powdercoated black

These aren't RS4 reps, but you get the idea. A matte (between satin and flat in sheen) black finish.

I love this pic! Silver like my car, I'm going to have racks and the same wheel color. This is what I want, black enough so that in pics and from far away it seems like just black voids where the rims should be.

Are those VMRs on a drop? I like the stance a lot! But I don't want rubbing or any hassles.
