Rim Oppinions and Questions
 
First of all I am driving an 03 A4 1.8T. As far as looks go I have tinted the windows and the tail lights. I am looking into buying some rims since a few of the stocks are beaten up.. I was looking into either some RS4 rims. I found those. I think If I got those I would get them in a gunmetal finish.

They are offered in 18x8.5-$174.75 and 19x8.5-$199.75.

I was also looking into some BMW M6 replicas. The RS4 reps above fit for Audi BMW and VW but would rims for a BMW fit on my car?

These are offered in many sizes. 18x8.5-$174.99 19x8.5-$219.8 20x8.5-$319.8

Any oppinions of what would look better? If the M6 reps would actually fit? and what size I should run? I have 18x8.5's on my car now but I will end up buying all new tires too.

depends on ur price range. I think the rs6 wheels are a bit overplayed. Alot of peeps have them but car is yours. I would say get sum nice 19's. Just go to a4mods and check out all the wheel options. i would go staggerd for sure though.

I think i am leaning toward the m6 rims right now because of how popular the RS4 rims are. would staggering it require a drop too? i dont know if i want to do that yet.

Staggering does not require a drop but it needs to calculations if you have Quattro.

As long as the wheels are 5X112, it should fit the car.

It is a quattro.
5x112??

5X112 is our bolt pattern (at least for A4's).

go staggered u will thank me in the end!

alright. thats what i was thinking it was. the bolt patterns match but it asks for offsets and says something about center bore? what are these? i am looking at buying from modbargains. this is the page for the M6 rims I think i want to get http://www.modbargains.com/product.a...Style_Wheel_JY

center bore on our cars is hubcentric. U will need to make sure the rism u get are hubcentric cuz thats what audis are. If u dont get it then ur wheels wont sit flush. theyt also sell adaptors for that incase the wheels u want are lugcentric
