Yes, that's what I have, four cheap Chinese copies complete with Audi logo and part number 4BO 501 165 A and "Made in Germany" which they clearly weren't. 
I bought them ages ago for some wheels I no longer have, and they were the wrong sort anyway.
So I butchered the plastic on the back of one (outer lugs only) to try to get it to fit, but it still didn't. 
So if you, or anyone else, wants them for beer money and postage just let me know.
Edit: As well as the missing plastic on the back one is also missing the metal spring clip retaining ring.
(I think I may have mentioned them before either here or on another forum, but no takers)
The metal rim should come off with care (I've done this on similar rims without problems to refurbish them) and the inner 4-rings emblem pops out easily. The emblem is plastic though on OEM centres is probably metal.
I found the metal ones clean up well with bathroom descaler.
