Default Any ultra-sport owners out there? Need wheel part#

Hey Everyone,

I know this is a tired topic, but there is no other way for me to get an answer to this question... If there's anyone out there with an Ultra-Sport, would you be willing to pop your center cap off & find out what the actual audi part# is for that wheel?

While we've talked the "RS4 vs. replica vs celebration vs ultraposrt" wheel topic to death, nobody has actually confirmed conclusively whether the 18" Type RS4 wheel available on audiusa.com is in fact the same wheel as what comes on ultra-sports.

The picture itself is <b>not</b> identical; the wheel in the picture does not have a 100% bevel groove gound around the spokes &amp; rim like the ultra. It has a bevel that fades away towards the center like the real RS4 wheels.

So, I'd like to know if the picture is wrong, or if there really is a different part# for the wheels that come on the ultra.

Thanks!

Default I saw the Catalog Wheels today in the showroom on a rack, and put it next to an ultrasport....

They ARE the same wheel. The RS4 Celebration wheel with an offset of 43 (hence the more flat nature.)

My opnion on this....since there so close to some peoples eyes, I think back in the day some one got reps and said they where real. Becuase of the ET30 offset on the Reps, they then looked diffrent and this whole debait started. Bottom line is, that guy should have realized, what he has was better then OEM with the offset of 30 on the Rep.

Again, I saw the catalong wheel today in the show room, and picked it up and put it right next to the Ultra Sport wheel. It IS the same. There is curvature toward the middle, but nothing like the Reps.

Ill take the Reps any day. And for 25% of the cost.

Default That remains to be seen

There are 3 different "Type RS4" 18" wheels that I have found in the catalog:

8N0601025L 1H7 (TT specific)
4D0601025AH1H7 (What you've quoted, B6 A4 and others)
8D0601025T 1H7 (allroad quattro)

What I'm looking for is clarification that the wheels on an Ultra actually have one of these part #'s (presumably the middle one).

Default So the bevel went all the way around on those?

I gather you didn't bother to confirm they actually had the same part# since you presumably were not there just to check this for me ;-)

Default Go Figure. JonBoy checked his: 4E0 601 025AB

So, while it's close, it's not the same actual part number as any of the ones listed on the audiusa website.

Thanks JonBoy!
