Tx Mate.....

So the OE was only 18" no 19"...

The present RS5 Rims are 19".

Are these OE D2 .... I like...

yep they are
the first one is a 7 spoke "sport" wheel 18" as fitted to Quattro Sports
The second is a Final Edition Wheel 20" as fitted at the end of the run. you can get these in an 8.5" as standard or there are 9" wide versions available off of later D3's

Ok...... Tx..... Leaning towards the Quattro Sports...

Hmmmmm.....Theyed really be nice in 19"s or 20"s.

The Quattro Sports only came in 18". I have a set that were refurbished in gloss black and fittd with Toyo 888 road legal track tyres for sale soon. However, if you have Brembo 4 pot brakes (and you will) they won't fit! :( The dish on the spoke interfers with the caliper. You would have to fit spacers. I also have a set of FL S8 Avuses that need refurbishing that I may part with.

Amen..... Even look good on an All Road

@ Architex... IMO the Sport Quattros are Stylin....

@ Conan.... Tx for the offer but gettin them to SA with all the hands that
need greasing along the way it would be cheaper to order a set
from the stealers.... :)

No. The All Road looks good on the sport wheels. Anything that purports to have an off-road capability is an agricultural vehicle. Should run on diesel and have no requirement to use the word 'sport' at all!!! :ROFL:

[PsYcHe]

Sorry Richard I meant Ronals. S8 18" wheels.

[PsYcHe]

Meh... 18... Pfft.... :rofl:

Much better in the snow!

P.S.

The 7 spoke sport wheels aren't quattro specific - They were same regardless of front / four wheel drive. They were fitted to 4.2 QS, but also preface 3.7' non q and pre/post 2.8 non q +++

Yup... Amazing, the same car.... :ROFL:

[Iyole]

Thank you for the Information IT +++

I really like the 7 Spoke but as far as I can establish they didn't come in 19".

The 18"s look a little lost on such a big car.... and I am not a Fan of Replicas ..... that's if 19" replicas are available...

Hmmmmm...... :Confused:

[Architex_mA8tey]

Yup... Amazing, the same car.... :ROFL:

Bitch!! :p
By the way they reopened my private drive again if youre ever down this way :D
