Default New Shoes for Spring-->

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/17474/frt_rt.jpg"></center><p>Since the day I bought my car I have lusted after the 4.2 Sport wheels, but alas, who wants to spend $500-$800 per wheel. I settled on the Ronal R38s (see my picture poster) which gave the car a "Distinguished" look IMO. The Rondell R64s have the same "Aggressive" look as the 4.2 Sport wheels and are very "Audi-esk" in appearance. The Rondells are hubcentric so no hub ring and they have won awards in Germany for their protective finish against winter road salt--should be helpful here in the NH. IMO changes the whole look of the car. Opinions?

Look nice, a lot like S-series wheels. What is the cost? Width?

Really nice! I was thinking about S4/S6 knockoffs, but these have me thinking twice!

Those are exceptional. Possibly the nicest I've seen!
