Default is it me, or if you...

block off the area before the front wheels and the area behing the rear wheels, the car looks like a BMW?

I think they look pretty tight. BTW, what side skirts are those?

Personally,I just don't like chrome wheels.

Default YES or NO.....you decide the look that impresses you.

IMHO I think the spokes are too thin. Chrome is out. Depending on the color of your A4 , certain wheel styles may stand out more than others. Silver tends to soften the look of most wheels.
The best idea is to try out sites like Tire Rack and choose the style among their many choices and pick your cars exterior color to visually identify a wheel that appeals to you.
Another method is to take photos of your car on a side angle. Then take and tear out a magazine advertisement, photocopy it on a reduction setting on a color copier (prefer Canon color) to match your cars pic. This will give you an excellent basis point from which to make a decision. I'm assuming you have a budget and this may limit your selection. Cheers!

Default I like 'em just fine...

...for YOUR car. ;-)

Really though, they get big points just for not being the same as everyone else's. Does it really matter what anyone else thinks. Hey, as long as they don't keep spinning when you stop, they're O.K. (anyone else seen those?)

I think they look a little like M3 wheels. If you like 'em (I do), get 'em. Hell, part of the reason I got an A4 in the first place was because most other people were driving BMW's and MBZ's. Go for it.
