Default Wheels - Choices, Choices, Choices

OK...so here is the deal. My BF is wanting me to tell him what I want for Christmas...and since I want so many things...I have to create a list. One of the things going on the list will be wheels. I am torn...I do not know what ones I want. I do know that I am partial to black ones...always a good choice..and I think it will look pretty cute when I get the windows tinted (yes..its on the list). I reallllllly reallllly want the Volk Racing LE37T wheels...but I know that I won't be getting those due to the price tag. So I have narrowed it down...pleeeease tell me what you think.

Konig Hurry: http://www.konigwheels.com/catalog_p...ID=1&ss_id=363
(not sure if I want Konig because it reminds me of all the gay little boys that put them on their stupid Honda's.)

ZE Forged Flight B: http://superbuytires.com/ZE+Forged/F...1=&p2=&finish=
(Again...might be too much money)

TSW Montage: http://www.streetdreams.org/display....r&supplier=TSW

Motegi Tracklite: http://www.motegiracing.com/wheels/d...yle=2388&desc=
(in flat black)

Either way....need some help here. If you know of any wheels that look comparable...but aren't as expensive as the Volk ones...it would be pretty helpful. Another thing...not sure what brands are the best.

I like the ZE the best... but not sure I like any of them a whole lot.
What kind and colour is your car?
Trak lites don't come in 5x112... at least not to my knowledge.

Oooh badlucks car... that is that crazy limited edition blue.

Hrmm... don't go black. Gunmetal if anything...
Or just sell a kidney and get BBS LM's. Mmm... in silver, of course.

Ph the ones you've presented, the ZE Flights look best. Definitely NOT the Konigs, tho. Have you checked out edgeracings offerings? http://www.edgeracing.com/1999/Audi/A4_1.8t/wheels/17/

I also vote or Silber, or polished aluminium, as opposed to Black, on a dark blue car. Now, if you can find someone to color match some wheels to your paint... THAT'D BE PYMP!

yea Pelican Blue and if it were me Id go with something like ARD M classics in black with a polished lip but it looks like you like the 5 spoke look so i dunno here is a pic of with with some gunmetal colored POS wheels on it so maybe it will give you an idea of what colors are cool and a chop of what it might look like with the Asa R1's


either way i think 18's will look best

No black?? Commmme on! I love black wheels! However, the gunmetal ones do look nice. I don't know...just if you picture it with black tinted windows...and black rims...and then the black details...??? no?? still no takers??

The ADR M's make me want to kill myself...sorry. Not feeling the whole "mesh look"

It will either have to be gunmetal or black...absolutely no silver or chrome...[:'(]

BBS LM's = too many spokes

I definately know some people that can paint the rims to match my car...but are you sure that wouldn't look too ghetto??? There are a couple wheel places out there that I saw that the company will color match any vehicle....

What about the Enkei Wheel Zr2?? Enkei Wheel Evo 5?? Flik Justice???

I love you that you guys are so helpfull!

The more I think about it...the more I want these....

http://www.buywheelstoday.com/products/?id=2725

And if I had the brake calipers painted the same pelican blue and get the audi decals like this http://xenonhid.dyndns.org/ebay/audicaliperpic2.jpg ...and maybe even paint the center caps the same blue.... would that be gay???
