Default Anybody sportin rs4's on a 4.2?

Just curious as to how they look on a 4.2, sans the RS6 gear.

Still leaning towards the Brabus or the ADR's, but the RS4 rims would maintain that Audi factory look. Nah mean?

Default Lightweight replica's? LOL!

Sorry.

OEM in 18" 22.5lbs VS 29.5lbs Replica.

$3,072.00 OEM with center caps VS $1050 Replica w/ OEM center caps from Achtuning.

Something I tell my cycling customers....

"The more you pay, the less it weighs"<ul><li><a href="http://collection.audiusa.com/store/accessory.asp?parent%5Fcategory%5Fid=11&amp;catego ry%5FID=49&amp;subcategory%5FID=203&amp;product%5F id=1506">OEM 18" RS4 Wheels</a></li></ul>

OK, 31% more weight. How much does 7 pounds/wheel affect performance?

Default 28lbs in total of rotational weight does add up I would think.

Though I would never pay that much for this wheel in 18" when you can source them easy on eBay Germany, www.eBay.de (just do a search for "S Line").

Granted I did pay $2K for my OEM 17's.

Default Have them on my S6 Avant

They look great!

The 18 x 8.5 really makes the S6 feel more solid.
