Replacement Wheels- Possibly Bentleys
Folks, I'm on the look out for replacement wheels as I think the OEM Sport 5 spoke wheels are just a bit too "thin" for the A8.
Ideally I'd like a set of Bentley monoblocks but there are none for sale for sensible money. Has anyone ever seen these on an A8? I've never been dying about them but would love to see them on an A8. 6BSC1Ttj29w~~60_3.JPG) I'd prefer to stay with 19's to save getting replacement tyres. However, I'm curious to hear of anyone that has gone from 19's to 20's, has there been a noticeable difference in ride quality? I really don't want to jeopardise the current comfort.

Seen these? - not the same design (spilt rims), and 21", and not exactly what I'd call cheap…

It you go for Bentley wheels then check their provenance, there are a lot of Bentleys having their wheels stolen to fuel the demand in using their wheels on other Marques.

RS4 seats seem to be the item of choice for the thieves now. Are you the mannyo from Briskoda per chance? Was just randomly wondering about that at the weekend!

There are a couple of recent threads on PH where photos of a couple of Bentleys in London sitting on bricks have been posted.
