Very high quality and very low weight compared to most other manufacturers. I have the aftermarket BBS RC 17x8 rims on my Avant. I think the RX rims look cooler (a bit beefier), but they weigh a bit more, so I went with RC.
RX 17x8 = ~22 lbs
RC 17x8 = ~18-19 lbs
Not sure why Audi decided to have BBS make a 17x7.5 just for them, rather than sticking with the standard 17x8 size. Probably so they could charge more. The aftermarket 17x8 RC will cost you about $400 each, while it looks like Audi charges $600-$700 each for their version! (Is that right??)
