As title says I am hunting for a set of original 7-spoke sport alloys.
Decent tyres a must as I need them on my vehicle ASAP.

If anyone knows of any please let me know.

I've got a set of 4. Pretty good nick, but I would have had a refurb if I hadn't sold the car. Three of the tyres are OK - I can send tread depths, but the 4th is unevenly worn. But I also have another set of 18" wheels (replicas) with almost new tyres (last December) which were around £100 each. Details are further down the 'for sale and wanted' list.
If you let me have an email address, I'll send photos of the sport wheels as well.
Then, if you're interested, we can see if we can strike a deal that we're both happy with.

Have a set of 5 classical 7 spike R18 alloys that came standard with sport (non S8) A8 2002.

4 are in immaculate condition. They were refurbrished by completely removing all the paint and then powder painting. No single scratch, like new. I've used them for almost a year after refurbrishment and then changed to monoblock type of wheels (see my post in Wheels and Tyres section). I've removed tyres from these 4 rims since tyres were worn. 4 like new rims.

I also have 5th wheel that came as spare. It is absolutely new wheel with Bridgestone tyre, but it's curbed (15cm scratch). It seems first owner have curbed it as soon as he first time drove away from dealership and then threw it into the boot. This wheel was not refurbished with other 4.

So I have 5 rims (one with a tyre and curbed). I'll be selling this set for 400 pounds. I'll take pictures when I have more time and will write separate post. PM me if interested. I'm based in Reading area.
