I dig the 17" audi sport rims and think I want to get those for an upgrade from my 16" sport rims. Found someone looking to get $700 for all 5, one is scuffed (use as spare). He said the others are like new (awaiting pics) and I have someone who can verify locally for me. After shipping it works out to about $150/rim. Cost about $600 shipped for 5 tires. Anyway, the price seems pretty good on the rims assuming 4 of them are mint. What do you guys think?

Anyone know if they can get me a line to getting these new? I tried to e-mail AoA but the link was broke. Havn't tried calling yet, and these rims aren't in the current accessory catalog, although I'm guessing they will be. All the rims in there had a list price of $250-275/ea for 17".

The 17"s on the Quattro Sport are very cool! I asked my salesman about them when I bought my car. He said, from Audi you'll pay major cash. He was quessing $300+ per wheel w/o tire. So if you can get them for half, go for it.

Any of you guys get caught in the hail storm down by Disney on Friday? Freakin dime size hail jacked up my wifes Subaru (looked crappy so luckily I left the Audi in the garage). Paint chips and no dents.

Spent the weekend down in Miami. Saw more A4/S4s in the two days we were there, than in the last 6 months.

The S4 wheels are around 26lbs each. Factory wheels have never been known for being lightweight. Plus, if they are made by Ronal they are heavy. Ronal doesn't know how to make a wheel under 20lbs.

They do look good though :-)

Employees can purchase parts at 10% over cost....Any parts. This goes for any of their dealerships. As long as I work for a Holler dealership my benifits are good at any of their locations.
What's the invoice price on the S4 because what ever that is, I pay $500.00 over...

They have them listed as RS4 wheels. Except they're 17", I thought the wheels on the RS4 were 18". Anyway $399 each. At that price (or $420 as Christian mentioned) I'm going with BBS.
