Default THANKS EVERYONE Decision is made:

DTM RS4 in 19" with Bridgestone RE 750 235/35/19 is the choice.

FYI - I bent a forged fat-5 rim on a monster pothole in Chicago last week. Transwheel to the rescue

Default Didn't like them off the car, but like them on the car.

I still think I like the DTM RS4 a tad more.

For wheels, I've always seemed to like the best looking "OEM-ish" wheel that can be found for the car.

It keeps the car looking less like an over-aftermarketed boy racer ***** =o)

Default OK, I gotta ask - How much do those suckers weigh???

The reason I ask is that unsprung weight (which is what wheels are) is the enemy of ALL performance.

I notice it on my 280 lb-ft torque-rich 2.7T. With a 2.8, you're REALLY gonna feel that extra weight and intertia, especially from a dead stop, which is where the 2.8 is weakest.

I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'......
