I lvoe these wheels. I have the type M, spit 5 spoke and he ahs these. They are great! They have a nice polished lip that really adds to the glimmer of the wheels but it doesnt make it look like chrome which IMHO looks too flashy. Borbet are very high quality. He has 245-45-17 on his and they fit perfectly fine. I have 225-45-17 on mine and that also works. The reason I went with the smaller size is to minimize any rubbing on my 2" lowered A4. HIs are on a Grand Prix GTP. Can send a pic if you like?<br>Chirs

I will send out the pics later tonight when I get back from work. My brother got his at a local Stereo shop for about $200 per wheel and I got mine from an aftermarket parts division of a local dealership for $187 each. Tire Rack has them but sometimes if you find smaller stores that get their stock from Tire Rack they will split the price between Wholesale and Tire Racks.<br>Chris
