they are RS4 reps, 18x8s, custom painted,that I got off ex-A8drifter last week! I love th
they were a lil heavy but i have no exact weight. I wrapped them in Bridgestone RE050s. Mark said that they were out of round (2 he thought) but they all balanced out 100% fine! They are much smoother than my old OEM 5 spokes. Im extremely happy with them...now I just need to lower the damn thing...which will be a while

Look fabtastic - I personally really dig the gun metal / Ming. Car looks a quadjillion times better
...than with them infernal 5 spokers rendering the proud D2 to Overgrown A4 looking blehness 8-)...

As far as who they are made by...ex-a8drifter...can you answer that?
They are factory replicas so they have no issues with offset, hub centric rings, etc. Everything was just straight bolt on and they give NO SHIMMY at all! The key is good tires and good balancing. bA8 - i would have no concern getting reps...BTW, i have a lead on a set of B7 RS4 reps for CHEAP! see top post or email me.
