Title: are these rs4 replica alloys?
Post by: glenandem on 29 June 2007, 12:32

hi seen these rims on ebay,are these rs4 replicas as they look the same but have shiny face with black inset and most rs4's are just silver,was thinking of them for the missus green gti turbo and then lowering it about 50mm,has anyone got any pics of these on theyre golf and will mine be 110 or 112,cheers glen

hi thanks for response,what makes you think that they could be refurbed, ive seen a few different people selling these,i think they could look pretty mean slammed on my golf but if they are refurbed,think id rather have new rims :smiley:

sorry my mistake.

they are brand new but not genuine items as i believe all Audi wheels were 5 x 112.  I could be wrong though  :undecided:

well the fact that the guy states that they are rs4 "style" would imply they are replicas, they look cool enough though. also being multi-fit also suggests replicas. so new rims, replicas, still look cool! :cool:

hi sorry i just read my original post it does sound like im asking if theyre replicas,i already knew that,what i should have said is which year r4 re they off coz ive never seen these type on an r4 apart from in just plain silver or them twin spokes, my fault ishould have made it more clearer.....doh,anyway what do you guys think off these,theyre going on my gti turbo in green and im gonna lower it about 45-50mm?

yeah they would have been just silver, the replicas just have a funky finish. i think they'd look cool, but are pretty common now, unfortunately as they are a nice wheel.
