Guy wants 200 Euro.

Whaddya thunk?
I had 9 spoke 18" rims on my S8 as winters initially from about 2009 till 2012. They were replicas - though I think it was only Ian/IT who spotted they weren't kosher 20s - and I'm not sure they cost me much more than that. Those ones were fine, but maybe I was lucky...
