I'm getting bored of missing out on 20" FE alloys or bidding on them and the auction being ended early so I've been looking into alternative after market options with a slight OE look. What do you think to these?.....

Well, truthfully, they look aftermarket and like you really wanted the factory ones but failed.... +++
Keep trying, you'll get some pukka ones...
'Cheap' Alloys are usually cheap for a reason.....

Thoses ones are only 8J rims too.. Proper 20's for '8s should be 9 IIRC, or at least 8.5.
What you often tend to find with replicas is that they are either way heavier or way lighter than the original and will either break easier over potholes, or affect the car over bumps.

I have 8.5x20 on the front and 10x20 on the A8 and they ride fine :)

They're actually not a bad-looking rim, just too narrow.
@ S4_Sat: What style wheels do you have on your ride?
