Default Finally got some wheels that work for me.....

I ran across some really nice 17" OZ Superleggra wheels with Bridgestone pole Position tires at a great price. While these are not as nice as the 18" BBS RXII that I had for a while, the look great and are light enough that is does not upset the suspension. The wheels and tires weigh about 41 pounds, the stock 15" wheels weigh about 37 pounds, and the big *** 18" BBS weighed about 56 pounds.

While these do not have the flash of some wheels, they look right, both design and size, for the car.<ul><li><a href="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/104083/audi_200_004.jpg">http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/104083/audi_200_004.jpg</a</li></ul>

Thanks. Looks period correct, yet 17" and light weight.

Default I have looked for some for a while, and scored on these.....

They are in great shape with minimal curbing or any other damage. They have a set of really nice Bridgestone 960 Pole Position high performance all season tires that are about 75%. I did not know anything about the tires, but they are #1 in category on tirerack.com. There was even a review by a 200 20v owner, probably a forum member, from Littleton, CO. Picked them up for $800 and I am very pleased with the wheels and the tires.

Default I as well searched for well over 1yr for a mint set. I bought a brand new one

the day after I bought the four.
Mine were shod with 255/40 Kuhmo MX's

I sold them cause I was dillusional! I thought they didn't look good on my Blk V8.... in retrospect I was way wrong!!!!
I should have kept them &amp; painted/PC'd them flat Blk.
