Would be very interested in the finshed look as may do it to my 18s so my winter set up looks as unique/menacing as summer...I also think you should have the center cap painted (except the rings) so it looks more solid.

I think it looks sweet! Plus brake dust will be hidden.. which the RS6 has much of! - Copper 2008-01-02 11:08:22 (73 views)

Do it, but do the whole wheel. A polished edge only looks right with a proper lip. - koz4.2 2008-01-02 10:21:16 (65 views)

I agree! Do the entire wheel if at all. - French-Fried-Rings 2008-01-02 12:38:25 (66 views)
