Those would look sick if they had a lip. IMO. Make sure to most pictures installed.

Thumbs up Clean wheels, dirty car

Decided to snap a few shots for now. Will get some better photos after the next wave of rain.

As for aggressive fitment, not really, haha pretty much the same except these are 18x8.5 vs 18x8 (RS4). I don't like it too flush, but when I do decide there's always spacers.

Thanks man! That's as low as it can go! My Neuspeed + Koni goes 1.75" in front 1.5" in back. However... a slight tuck wouldn't hurt

I'll stick with what I got now.

That's why I'm keeping both!

Nah, after looking at them for long, they look almost exactly like my old wheels.

I like the Nurburgring's! Not that the previous set looked bad. Anyway, I'm considering the TSW's as well, but in most google images, the polished version looks awfully bright against a darker body. But in your pics , it's not as flashy, shows depth and is pretty much what they'd look like on my AM, so thanks for posting.

Looks really good. The 18's in this rim look like they fit the car well and don't look small at all, especially with the drop you have. Nice job!

great look!.... a bit of history:

this look has been around for quite some time... but nothing made this more craved than the HRE P40.... and yes this is a $6K a set wheel. I too love this style, but wont thread jack. (If your curios.. check out my 20x10 wheel thread)

Once again... I gota say... Fantastic choice on style!!!!

Here is a $6K set of P40 on an R8
