Hold you over? Why can't you just continue to ride on the stockers for now and then in a years time go all out with the new ?


Otherwise i like me.

Those looks like TT Le Man's wheels, those are hot, but they may have a downfall of weight. Those TSW are nice, there was actually 2 prototype sets 3 years ago that floated among 12-13 VW and Audi owners here in So. Cali, now I guess they're officially out. Why not Fiske, HRE, etc?

Remember, TSW wheels are also notoriously soft.

In any case, go for the TSW wheels if you plan to stand out. The RS4 wheels go with the lines of the A4, which is nice also.

The TSWs are pretty cool but everyone wil know you are a cheap ass. The RS Audi replica wheels look much more expensive than they are. BBS LMs would be my price-is-no-object choice on that car.
