BBs Rc' s fella, look the dogs danglies on a mk4.... off a mk4 anni model, do a search on here or google it , it'll bring up loads

B*tch to clean tho' and make sure they have already been refurb'd, its £Â£ if they havent , they look gash when they peel otherwise

BBS CH's, RC's, RX's, something a bit cheaper the ace 112's, 132's or some replicas they are cheaper and weigh more than the originals. All down to personal opionion really have a look on dubmodder.com and try some different styles out. Get some lower brake dust pads like the ebc ones to save the cleaning.

I'd have to say BBS RC's, they look awesome.  I'm currently saving to put a set on mine.
I've seen a few with 18 (poss 19) Audi wheels, not sure what the model is.  They've got a quite a few spokes (poss 16), which are flat and slightly triangular.  They look pretty good aswell, can anyone identify the model from my poor description?
